A few years ago, if you’d mentioned Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) to me, I would’ve given you a puzzled look. However I’m now on the bandwagon. And to help others understand how it can benefit them, I’ve pulled together a simple GitHub repo that showcases how Terraform can be used with Snowflake to manage users, roles, warehouses and databases.
The readme hopefully gives anyone who wants to give it a go the ability to step through and see results. I’m sharing this in the hopes that it is useful to some of you.
I’d never heard of it. Then my first encounter was in a company where someone had built a Python abstraction layer over the top to ‘make it easy’ and it just turned into a mess. But when done well, it’s much better!
