Numerous platforms and third-party providers now offer tools to create and host websites within minutes, complete with custom domains, analytics, and sleek graphical interfaces.

For straightforward websites or smaller-scale projects, these platforms can be a convenient choice. However, they often fall short when it comes to flexibility, automation, and cost-effectiveness at scale. Many lack robust CLI (Command Line Interface) support for streamlining tasks, can become expensive as your needs grow, or demand significant management effort and a steep learning curve.

Terraform helps engineers define, provision, and manage cloud resources across multiple providers. However, as infrastructure complexity grows, managing Terraform configurations becomes challenging. This is where Terragrunt—a thin wrapper for Terraform—comes into play. It enhances Terraform’s capabilities, making it easier to manage large-scale infrastructures efficiently.

In this blog, we will explore how to organize Terraform projects using Terragrunt, and how it solves common challenges with Terraform’s limitations such as managing backend configurations, large state files, and dependencies between multiple stacks.
