- Cloud infrastructure provisioning
- Multi-environment management (dev, staging, prod)
- Infrastructure versioning and code review
- Cost tracking and resource optimization
- Disaster recovery and environment replication
- Automated infrastructure testing
- Cross-region deployments

Best Practices
✅ DO
- Use remote state (S3, Terraform Cloud)
- Implement state locking (DynamoDB)
- Organize code into modules
- Use workspaces for environments
- Apply tags consistently
- Use variables for flexibility
- Implement code review before apply
- Keep sensitive data in separate variable files
❌ DON'T
- Store state files locally in git
- Use hardcoded values
- Mix environments in single state
- Skip terraform plan review
- Use root module for everything
- Store secrets in code
- Disable state locking
