The idea is most famously and richly explored with the Genesis Device-the terraforming missile that provides the narrative through-line for the films Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, Star Trek III: The Search for Spock, and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. One of the most potent interactions between technology and virtue in Star Trek is the technology of terraforming-the alteration of a dead planet’s atmospheric conditions in order to make it capable of supporting life. Whatever our technological development, it must never outpace our moral development. This is a future we can attain, it proposes, by embracing and holding fast to essential principles of freedom, equality, justice, exploration, and imagination. Star Trek’s most important future, then, is the future of the human heart. The hopeful vision of humanity Roddenberry proposed was based, not in salvation through technology, but in the moral, spiritual, and social development of humankind. In Star Trek’s version, the gospel is that of humanity picking itself up by its own bootstraps and saving itself through the virtuous application of human genius and creativity. It is an ideal that closely reflects the culmination of the Christian gospel, only without the Christian gospel.

Hence their entire prod environment achieved IaC automation without destroying, redeploying, or manually importing their existing resources. These updated scripts were then applied to their production environment so that the current state of infrastructure became synced with the desired state in the tfstate files. Given this scenario, we used Terraformer to generate Terraform scripts for their existing production environment while updating the configurations to include the additional missing resources. However, the main challenge was that their production Apigee organization was already up and running along with the shared VPC network. They wanted to deploy their production environment using the terraform scripts. Their entire Dev Environment was also provisioned manually through gcloud commands, including Apigee organization, shared VPC networks, instance groups, SQL servers & load balancers. The customer recently migrated their managed APIs from IBM API connect to Apigee GCP. Royal Cyber team leveraged Terraformer to aid a Fortune 500 company in the field of truck manufacturing to provision their production in their Google Cloud environment. Terraformer In Practice: Royal Cyber Case Study To learn more about how quickly Terraformer performs this task compared to Terraform import, check out our demo with our cloud expert. With the help of Terraformer, Infrastructure as Code is more fluent and automatic than ever before! And all in a matter of minutes! You then have an identical terraform script to match with the infrastructure.
Once you input the provider, you can download the dependencies. Thus, we do not have to import any resources manually.Įxample: terraformer import google -resources=gcs,forwardingRules,httpHealthChecks,firewall,instances,networks,subnetworks -connect=true -regions=us-central1 -projects=xyz-123 Not only that, but it also registers the current state of the infrastructure with the desired state in the terraform state files, and hence it becomes synced with your cloud environment. Once you configure Terraformer with correct read permissions and run the Terraformer import command, it generates all the relevant terraform scripts for your existing infrastructure. With Terraformer, this manual process becomes automatic.
This import command has to be applied manually for all the resources that belong to a GCP project after creating subsequent recourse blocks in the terraform configuration file. Once you have entered all the essential details, terraform import will check for the specified resource and register it in the state config file.Įxample: terraform import google_compute_fault projects/ Then you will use the Terraform Import command with resource block name & the entire path to the provider resource such as the projectid, region & instanceid. In Terraform Import, first, you will define the resource block in the terraform configuration file with complete resource metadata.
