terraform
Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.
Terraform is a tool to build your infrastructure as code. We've been having a few challenges while trying to figure out how to how to manage configuration and secrets when integrating terraform with our CD pipeline.

Secrets like passwords can be version controlled in a similar way though they require encryption to keep them safe. We're using OpenSSL with a symmetric key to encrypt our secrets. Each secret is put into a tfsecrets file (internally a property file just like tfvars files for configuration). When encrypted, the file will have an extension of .tfsecrets.enc. When the plan or apply stages are executed, files are decrypted in memory (and not on disk, for security reasons) and used the same way.
