Terraform BlueCat Provider
With the Terraform BlueCat Provider plugin, reduce time and costs spent on cloud environment changes by automating configuration management through code.
What is it?
The Terraform BlueCat Provider allows network teams to automate against a single source of truth when deploying to public and private cloud environments. Key resources such as networks, IP addresses, and DNS records can be created and updated near real-time to accelerate automation for large and distributed networks. Furthermore, when combined with Terraform’s monitoring and version control capabilities, enterprises can extend automation to ensure new and existing BlueCat environments are consistently maintained.
The challenge
To maintain organizational integrity and create new environments, network teams need an automated way to assemble or reassemble their networks quickly. Without a way to safely and predictably monitor, create, change, and improve infrastructure, network remediation and deployment issues increase. That means unwanted network changes take longer to revert, cloud adoption slows, or testing new technologies becomes more error-prone.
Simple coding
Easily apply iterative context to your code.
Faster builds
Change environments without a hard rewrite.
Always-on monitoring
Keep environments clean and versioned.
