Configuration files

Now we will see how to create EC2 instances using Terraform.

Create a directory for your configuration file. Terraform will load all the files (*.tf) inside the directory called workspace, so make sure to keep the necessary files inside the directory:

$ mkdir terraform$ cd terraform$ terraform workspace new MyTestMachine$ terraform workspace select MyTestMachine

Terraform uses the *.tf format, known as Terraform configuration.
