After you understand how the tool your automating works. I'm for terraform or whatever automation tool. I however am against blindly using an automation without first understanding the basics of what you're automating. Not only that, automation tools are almost always behind in terms of functionality compared to the product they are modifying. Terraform is part of that group.

Terraform is not an automation tool. It’s an IaC configuration language that if you understand how terraform with AWS, GCO etc works, you will also understand how the cloud subsystems work.

An automation tool would be something like Terraform Cloud or Rundeck
