Azure Terraform Full Course For Beginners

What this course covers

This is a beginner track for Terraform, the infrastructure-as-code tool, applied to Microsoft Azure. Most of the run time goes to the language itself: input variables and tfvars files, locals, outputs, loops, and the state file Terraform uses to track what it has built.

Who it suits

Someone who knows what a cloud resource is but has never written infrastructure as code will find a logical order here. Learners used to clicking through a portal will appreciate that configuration becomes files you can review, reuse and version.

Key takeaways

• Parameterising a configuration with variables and locals, so one template can serve several environments.
• Structuring reusable code in modules, and handling larger projects.
• Understanding state before anything touches a shared environment.

The course is organised as 28 videos, including 9 mini projects and 5 real-time projects, and the notes, diagrams, code snippets and assignments are shared through a GitHub repository. Budget time for the projects, since they are where the concepts become habits.
