Hands-On with the Terraform Module for AWS Landing Zone

Eugene Istrati shares his findings from helping customers set up AWS Landing Zone using the Terraform Module that's purpose-built for this task.

**Upadate: HashiCorp and AWS have now built a more secure and seamless system for managing multi-account AWS in Terraform. The service is called AWS Control Tower Account Factory for Terraform (AFT), and it's the evolution of the Terraform Landing Zones discussed in this video. It offers an easier way to set up and govern multi-account AWS environments.


Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. Best practices include: - A collaborative approach to infrastructure provisioning - Use of version control systems - Preventing manual changes - Efficient management of boundaries between different teams, roles, applications, and deployment tiers.
