Day 14: Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

Overview

This day focuses on Infrastructure as Code (IaC). You will learn how to use Go to interact with IaC tools like Terraform and Pulumi to automate infrastructure provisioning.

Tasks

• Task 1: Write a Go program to interact with Terraform using the terraform-exec library.
• Task 2: Use Pulumi with Go to provision cloud resources.
• Task 3: Compare the benefits of using Go with IaC tools versus traditional scripting.

Resources

• Terraform Exec Library
• Pulumi Go SDK
• Infrastructure as Code Overview

Example Code

// Example: Using Pulumi with Go
package main

import (
    "github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi"
)

func main() {
    pulumi.Run(func(ctx *pulumi.Context) error {
        bucket, err := ctx.NewResource("aws:s3/bucket:Bucket", "my-bucket", nil)
        if err != nil {
            return err
        }

        ctx.Export("bucketName", bucket.ID())
        return nil
    })
}

Exercises

• Write a Go program to initialize and apply a Terraform configuration.
• Use Pulumi with Go to create a cloud resource (e.g., an S3 bucket).
• Compare the output of Terraform and Pulumi for the same infrastructure.
