HashiCorp has released version 0.5 of its Consul-Terraform-Sync (CTS) tool, which combines Terraform and Consul functionality to automate network infrastructure management across on-premises and cloud environments. The new release includes improvements in task lifecycle management with the addition of four new APIs and a CLI for creating, updating, deleting, and reading tasks. It also introduces streamlined configuration through module_input blocks that can now be used with all task types. Additionally, CTS 0.5 features new ecosystem integrations with Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center (FMC) and Fortinet FortiManager.
