The coming wave of containerization has pushed the principals of immutablity down to the application level. This has increased the velocity of deployment but also brought new and complex orchestration challenges. Terraform is a powerful tool for managing infrastructure based on the principals of immutable infrastructure while Consul provides a distributed runtime for the datacenter and provides service discovery, configuration and coordination.

In this talk we show how they can be used together to easily deploy and scale large-scale containerized workloads using container runtimes like Docker.
