Technical requirements
This chapter will explain how you can use Terraform to provision an Azure infrastructure as an example of cloud infrastructure. Therefore, you will need an Azure subscription, which you can get, for free, at https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/.
In addition, we will require a code editor to write the Terraform code. There are several editors out there, but I will be using Visual Studio Code. It is free, lightweight, multiplatform, and has several extensions for Terraform. You can download it at https://code.visualstudio.com/. The complete source code of this chapter is available at https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Learning-DevOps-Second-Edition/tree/main/CHAP02.
