● Targeted for existing TF users as an
extension
● TF developers continue using TF as is
● Cloudify syncs with the TF backend
○ Pulls new states
○ Applies updates
● Cloudify deployment exposes selected data
from TF as Cloudify Nodes - this allows to
execute workflow, trigger auto-scaling,
healing using the standard Cloudify
platform on resources that was created by
TF.

Cloudify compute nodes gets its IP
from a host that has been created
by Terraform
Cloudify Terraform Module creates
the underlying infrastructure by
executing the relevant Terraform
file and populates its state as
runtime properties
