Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary)

As a result of Hashicorp's license change to BSL, Red Hat OpenShift needs to remove the use of Hashicorp's Terraform from the installer - specifically for IPI deployments which currently use Terraform for setting up the infrastructure.

To avoid an increased support overhead once the license changes at the end of the year, we want to provision GCP infrastructure without the use of Terraform.

Requirements (aka. Acceptance Criteria):

• The GCP IPI Installer no longer contains or uses Terraform.
• The new provider should aim to provide the same results and have parity with the existing GCP Terraform provider. Specifically, we should aim for feature parity against the install config and the cluster it creates to minimize impact on existing customers' UX.

Use Cases (Optional):

Include use case diagrams, main success scenarios, alternative flow scenarios. Initial completion during Refinement status.

Questions to Answer (Optional):

Include a list of refinement / architectural questions that may need to be answered before coding can begin. Initial completion during Refinement status.
