Network Infrastructure Automation (NIA) is the concept of dynamically updating infrastructure devices triggered by service changes. Consul-Terraform-Sync is a tool that performs NIA and utilizes Consul as a data source that contains networking information about services and monitors those services. Terraform is used as the underlying automation tool and leverages the Terraform provider ecosystem to drive relevant changes to the network infrastructure.
