So in my mind, we walked out of those three days with the building blocks and knowledge to build just about anything in AWS with Terraform. Not only can we build it, but we can test it, and validate our terraform against best practices and setup pull requests hooks to validate code before allowing it to be checked in.

Course - Terraform on AWS
- Setelah dua tahun terutama melakukan komunikasi virtual, pelatihan, dll. sangat menyenangkan bisa mengadakan kursus di lokasi lagi bersama seluruh tim - Selain teori dan latihan lab, sangat berharga melihat guru melakukan hal-hal secara langsung, termasuk semua kesalahan dia mungkin melakukannya. Ini sangat membantu untuk mendapatkan gambaran tentang bagaimana seseorang harus bekerja dengan suatu alat, mendapatkan bantuan, melakukan debug, dll.
