What Terraform can learn from PHP

• terraform

  500 41,118 9.9 Go

  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 and its surrounding ecosystem are still evolving and share many similarities with early PHP and the web. Just like PHP evolved by learning from other language ecosystems, Terraform can as well.

• Gatsby

  356 55,000 9.4 JavaScript

  The best React-based framework with performance, scalability and security built in.

  

If I’m building a cloud native application in Java, using Spring Boot will make my life much easier. Likewise, if my goal is to build a Jamstack website, a framework like Gatsby will get me there much faster.

• Django

  484 76,672 9.8 Python

  The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines.

  

This led to the creation of frameworks like Django, Ruby on Rails or Spring that made it easy to build web applications in Python, Ruby or Java respectively, leveraging their existing language ecosystems.

• Symfony

  151 29,294 10.0 PHP

  The Symfony PHP framework

  

The result are frameworks like Symfony or CakePHP, heavily inspired by Spring and Rails respectively. This is also how Composer brought modern dependency management to PHP. And last but not least, this was when the PHP community adopted Git for version control and slowly moved away from just editing production files directly via FTP.

• kubernetes

  657 106,778 10.0 Go

  Production-Grade Container Scheduling and Management

  

The paradigm shift to containers and Kubernetes made use-case specific frameworks possible for infrastructure as code by providing a powerful abstraction between application and infrastructure layer. And the cloud native community is evolving rapidly, extending this abstraction to additional use-cases.
