As software engineers, we must realize that AI isn’t “free.” Running these models consumes tokens, and burning tokens costs significant money. Optimizing our token usage isn’t just about efficiency — it’s about fiscal responsibility.

Terraform is an open-source Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool created by HashiCorp. It lets you define, provision, and manage infrastructure (servers, networks, databases, Kubernetes clusters, etc.) using declarative configuration files. Instead of clicking around cloud consoles, you describe what you want, and Terraform figures out how to make it happen.
