In this webinar, we'll try to cover to use cases when Terraform and Crossplane might work together.
1. You're a heavy Terraform user, but you want to move to Crossplane. Let's say you already have an opinionated "RDS instance" Terraform module. You can now write a Crossplane Composition that uses that Terraform module to get your migration started with low effort and risk, then transparently migrate folks over to a 'native' Crossplane Composition that satisfies the same XR when you're ready.
2. You want to start using Crossplane but you're blocked on some resources we don't support. Now you can use the pattern demonstrated in workspace-inline.yaml to mix and match native Crossplane managed resources with anything Terraform supports, which will hopefully unblock you.
