Terraform is used to create, manage, and update infrastructure resources such as virtual machines, network switches, containers, physical machines and so much more. Almost any infrastructure type can be represented as a resource in Terraform.
Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. Terraform can manage existing and popular service providers as well as custom in-house solutions
Terraform is created by Hashicorp, developed to deploy infrastructure as code. Terraform makes it easy to re-use configurations for similar infrastructure, helping you avoid mistakes and save time.

Terraform Features:
Deploy infrastructure as code into AWS, onprem or other cloud platforms
Execution plans - Terraform has a "planning" step where it generates an execution plan. The execution plan shows what Terraform will do when you call apply
Resource Graph - Terraform builds a graph of all your resources, and parallelizes the creation and modification of any non-dependent resources
Change Automation - Complex changesets can be applied to your infrastructure with minimal human interaction.
Use within CI/CD Devops pipelines
Write automated testing
Integrate with the many provider APIs available

Highlights
Configuration files describe to Terraform the components needed to run a single application or your entire datacenter. Terraform generates an execution plan describing what it will do to reach the desired state, and then executes it to build the described infrastructure. As the configuration changes, Terraform is able to determine what changed and create incremental execution plans which can be applied.
Automate the provisioning of your AWS infrastructure, on prem or any other cloud platform. Very easy to use
Use within your CI/CD devops pipelines. Create automated testing, before deploying infrastructure.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
If you are an AWS Free Tier customer with a free plan, you are eligible to subscribe to this offer. You can use free credits to cover the cost of eligible AWS infrastructure. See AWS Free Tier for more details. If you created an AWS account before July 15th, 2025, and qualify for the Legacy AWS Free Tier, Amazon EC2 charges for Micro instances are free for up to 750 hours per month. See Legacy AWS Free Tier for more details.
You pay by the hour to run this Terraform image on Windows Server 2019. Pricing is not one flat rate. Instead, you pick from many AWS EC2 instance types, and each carries its own hourly software rate. The options span general-purpose, compute-optimized, memory-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, and bare-metal families in a range of sizes. Larger instances with more CPU, memory, or specialized hardware cost more per hour. Your total depends on which instance you choose and how many hours you run it. You can stop charges by stopping the instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one hourly unit cover, and what runs on the instance I choose?
Each unit is one running EC2 instance-hour for the chosen instance type. The image runs open-source Terraform on Windows Server 2019, preconfigured and ready to use. You connect over RDP and run Terraform from PowerShell or Command Prompt. The instance type sets the CPU, memory, and hardware behind that hourly rate.
Am I charged if I stop the instance overnight or when not running Terraform?
The software rate meters running instance-hours only. When you stop the instance, the hourly software charge stops accruing. Underlying AWS storage fees for the stopped volume may still apply separately. To pause all software charges, stop the instance; to resume, start it again.
How do I switch to a different instance type if my workload changes?
You are not locked to one instance type. You can stop the instance and change its type, then restart it. Billing then follows the hourly rate for the newly selected type. Your cost tracks whichever type is running and the hours it runs. There is no separate commitment tied to a single type.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

What do you like best about the product?
Terraform is one of the best Infrastructure as code tool out there. Its ability to store the tfstate in Human readable format and its Compatibility with the multiple cloud Environment Just Amuses Me.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not one thing i disliked about the Terraform Yet. Just the knowledge on the Terraform Cloud.. But that is out of scope for Terraform on Windows Server 2019.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time to deploy the Software in the Cloud. better control over things. Avoiding manual mistakes made by the developers. Having a configuration stored as code. Consistency of infra on all Environments.
