Technical requirements
Contrary to the previous chapters, the code examples provided in this chapter are not fundamental, since we will focus on the execution of Terraform command lines.
In this chapter, to provide Terraform configuration samples, we will manage resources in the Azure cloud; it is obvious that this also applies to all other Terraform providers. If you want to apply these recipes and don’t have an Azure account, you can create an Azure account for free at this site: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/free/.
Additionally, to execute Terraform commands with the CLI, we use a command-line terminal (CMD, PowerShell, Bash, and so on), and the execution folder will be the folder containing the Terraform configuration of the recipe. This will apply to all recipes in this chapter.
The code examples in this chapter are available here: https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Terraform-Cookbook-Second-Edition/tree/main/CHAP06.
