Terraform Azure

Provision and manage Azure infrastructure with Terraform using the AzureRM provider. Covers provider configuration, remote state, resource groups, VNets, AKS, Key Vault, complete .tf file examples, and production workflows.

When to Use

• You need multi-cloud or cloud-agnostic Infrastructure as Code.
• Your team standardizes on Terraform across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
• You need plan/apply workflows with change preview before deployment.
• You want modular, reusable infrastructure components.
• You need state locking and drift detection for production infrastructure.
