What you'll learn

You will be able to write Terraform code and build infrastructure as code using Azure.
You will understand key Terraform concepts and be able use these to create reusable Modules.
You will understand the structure of Terraform code and how to deploy resources using the Azure provider.

Requirements

A laptop with internet connectivity. This course has been produced on Windows 10 so if you’re using another platform there will be some subtle differences.
An Azure subscription, this course will work on a free trial subscription. Due to the nature of this course a non-production subscription is highly recommended.
Basic familiarity with Microsoft Azure and scripting.

Description

This course takes you through all aspects of Terraform v12 and v13, from initial setup to a sample real world deployment in Azure.

Note : This course is no longer being updated though it still works with current terraform version 1.x. Recently v3 of the AzureRM provider has been released, this course has been tested up-to v2.99 of the provider but not beyond this.

The course begins with setting up the training environment, installing Terraform and configuring Azure. As the course develops will look at various aspects of Terraform and how we can use these to build our deployment. Alongside this we will use various resources in Azure, I will explain what these are, how these work and then we will deploy these using Terraform. Just set expectations this course isn’t an Azure course. So while I won’t go into any great depth on each Azure resource I do provide an overview of the most salient features.

This course has been developed to be as practical as possible, most of the lessons are follow along in nature. Overviews of key areas of Terraform and Azure Resources are provided for reference.

Terraform v13 specific lessons have been added in Section 8. These naturally follow on from the prior sections.

Who this course is for:

Anyone interested in learning Terraform specifically with Microsoft Azure.
Anyone interested in learning Terraform using multiple providers, Azure being one.
Anyone interested in learning infrastructure as code.

This course is DEFINITELY a 'must-see-do' for anyone that wants to watch Terraform in action in Azure. The instructor stepped through every bit of an Azure build from creating a simple resource group... all the way up and out into multi site scale-set web servers running behind LB's behind Traffic Manager retrieving Creds from a storage vault. And then just for the heck of it, let's throw in a Bastion for good measure. Very Cool!!

I’ve always had a passion for scripting and automation. Educated as software engineer over 20 years ago, I’ve worked in IT infrastructure, Design and Automation since. During this period I have been trained in a lot of technology, from Operating Systems, Programming though to Network Infrastructure.

Automation has always been a focus and I have experience of many languages including PowerShell, Python, Javascript and Typescript to name a few. I have always valued good training and education. As well as technical skills, I have produced high quality documentation, designs and support materials for education, reference and cross skilling. Having this background I’m positioned to produce high quality online training courses of a technical nature.
