Terraform by HashiCorp defines infrastructure as code using HCL. Supports every major cloud provider. The standard for declarative infrastructure management.
Reviewer scorecard
“Unlimited log ingestion changes how you think about logging. No more deciding what to keep. Query everything.”
“The lingua franca of infrastructure as code. Provider ecosystem covers every cloud service imaginable.”
“The pricing model is radically simpler than Datadog. Ingest everything, pay for queries and retention.”
“BSL license change was controversial but the tool remains essential. OpenTofu is the hedge if needed.”
“Query-on-read architecture is the future of log management. Axiom's approach makes unlimited logging practical.”
“Infrastructure as code is table stakes. Terraform's provider ecosystem is its moat and it keeps growing.”
