Choose an cloud infrastructure config option and use it #50

I'd recommend terraform based on research and some (limited) experience.

Whatever the choice is finally, please remember that a hard requirement is that any type of software we use MUST (as in RFC MUST) smoothly work locally (off-cloud).

Vagrant, Chef, Puppet would fulfill this requirement. No idea if terraform does that.

@aaronkaplan terraform is specifically for setting up cloud infrastructure. Puppet, chef, ansible, salt etc are different: they are for configuring deployed machines (mainly). Terraform is built by people who built vagrant - but has a different purpose.

Thx for the quick info. Reminder: everything MUST be able to be run non-cloud(ed) as well.

@aaronkaplan terraform is a tool for booting the cloud infrastructure. It would not be relevant for local install.
