Vagrant vs. Terraform

Vagrant is a tool for managing virtual machines. Terraform is another open source tool from HashiCorp which enables infrastructure as code.

Both Vagrant and Terraform use a declarative syntax to express the desired, final state of a system. Vagrant's focus is on development environments whereas Terraform's focus is on remote APIs and cloud resources. While Terraform has provisioners, they are not as full-featured as those in Vagrant. Vagrant cannot manage cloud resources without third-party plugins.
