Use Terraform with Backup for GKE

Standard

Terraform is a tool for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure. You can use configuration files to describe the components needed to run a single application or your entire infrastructure. If you already use Terraform for provisioning your GKE clusters, you can use the Google Cloud Terraform Provider to enable Backup for GKE and begin creating BackupPlans. To learn more about using Terraform with Backup for GKE, see the following documentation:
