I just published a blog post on the O'Reilly Radar called [{{ page.title }}]({{ page.external_url }}) where I discuss
what Terraform does and how it compares to Chef, Puppet, Ansible, CloudFormation, and other tools.

The blog post is an excerpt from my book *[Terraform: Up & Running](http://www.terraformupandrunning.com/)*.
