I love your comment,"YOLO-ing" gave me a laugh, and a laugh at myself in some previously stressful/complex deployment periods. Terraform was not a friend there. That said, I've worked on/with a team enabling some fairly advanced & streamlined capabilities across all three clouds because of Terraform. The abstraction matters, and ability to model scaled platform components and architectures as singular units is important. The open source community is great.

is the open source community great? Look at the open bugs. Some of them are old enough to go to school. For extra lolz try killing the terraform process of pulling the network cable. Hilarity ensures and you’re gonna have a bad time recovering what it was doing. I would not recommend Terraform period.

  There was a bug fixed few months ago. Until recently when you tried to destroy the infrastructure it started to undo what was actually deployed. Previously it was using the current hcl file.

  So purposely breaking state means it breaks, gotcha.
