Case Study: Wayfair unifies hybrid infrastructure with HashiCorp Terraform

Hybrid Terraform at Wayfair Unifying Your Physical and Cloud Data Centers

Wayfair, a large e-commerce company, needed a way to manage a hybrid infrastructure environment spanning owned datacenters and public cloud. Using HashiCorp’s Terraform, Wayfair aimed to unify deployment workflows across physical bare metal servers, VMs in its vCenter cluster, and GCP instances through a single CI/CD pipeline.

HashiCorp helped Wayfair implement a Terraform-based pipeline that streamlined provisioning across on-premises and cloud environments, while also supporting auditing and burst traffic balancing for high-demand e-commerce periods. The result was a more consistent hybrid infrastructure approach, though the case study does not provide specific quantitative metrics.
