Infra Automation by Terraform Dynamic Block for Map(Objects) Usecase— Part6

Reading time:3 mins read

This discussion demonstrates the use of dynamic blocks in Terraform to create Azure Front Door routing rules. It defines a map of routing rules in the terraform.tfvars file, where each rule includes attributes like accepted protocols, patterns to match, and frontend endpoints. The dynamic block is used to iterate over these routing rules and generate configuration blocks for each rule dynamically. In the case of forwarding rules, another nested dynamic block is used to configure forwarding settings.

In this part, we explore the benefits and steps involved in setting up a Terraform pipeline for Azure. The pipeline ensures consistent Infrastructure as Code (IaC) deployments and automates provisioning and updates. Integration with version control systems like Git allows for tracking changes and collaboration. The pipeline also enhances security through secrets management for sensitive information. The pipeline is structured with multiple jobs, including Terraform Plan, Review, and Deploy, to manage infrastructure changes efficiently and securely.

Infra Automation by Terraform for Azure Cloud VM— Part 4

Reading time:4 mins read

This Terraform setup automates the provisioning of an Azure Virtual Machine (VM) with managed disks. It uses variables.tf to define key parameters like resource group name, VM size, and admin credentials. In main.tf, resources such as a resource group, virtual network, subnet, network security group, and a Windows VM are created. The VM is configured with a custom OS disk size and a specified Windows image. The terraform.tfvars file provides variable values for easy configuration, and the terraform plan and terraform apply commands are used to deploy the infrastructure.

In Part 3 of this Terraform Azure Automation series, authenticate Terraform with Azure by logging in via Azure CLI and setting your subscription ID. Create a Service Principal with Contributor permissions and configure environment variables (client ID, secret, subscription ID, tenant ID). Set up the Azure provider in a main.tf file, initialize Terraform, and apply the changes to manage your Azure infrastructure.
