Ansible Terraform Configuration Management Training in Astana, Kazakhstan

This training introduces participants to infrastructure as code (IaC) using two powerful tools: Ansible and Terraform. The course focuses on automating configuration, provisioning, and deployment of infrastructure across cloud and on-premise environments. Participants will gain practical skills to write declarative infrastructure code, manage configurations at scale, and integrate workflows using modern DevOps practices.
