• State Management: Tracks the state of your infrastructure to ensure accurate and predictable changes.
• Automation: Automate infrastructure provisioning and management tasks.
• Modularity: Organize infrastructure into reusable modules for better maintainability.

Use Cases:

• Cloud Infrastructure Provisioning: Automate the creation and management of cloud resources.
• Multi-Cloud Deployments: Deploy applications across multiple cloud providers.
• Infrastructure Automation: Automate repetitive infrastructure tasks.
• Disaster Recovery: Quickly recreate infrastructure in case of a disaster.
• Application Deployment: Integrate with CI/CD pipelines to automate application deployments.
