Terraform from HashiCorp is popular in system administration circles as a tool which facilitates "infrastructure-as-code", often as part of a development team's CI/CD environment. Ansible is a popular Open Source system management framework that can be used to manage a huge array of different types of equipment, from network switches to storage subsystems to operating systems. This session will cover some of the "good, bad, and ugly" of using Ansible and Terraform to manage z/VM systems, the guests that run on them, and the partitions and machines on which they run. There will also be a live demo of using Terraform running on IBM Z to deploy virtual infrastructure!
