Terraform AKS

Terraform AKS baseline clusters – deployment walkthrough

Description

In this course, we’re going to deploy AKS clusters using different Infrastructure as Code approaches. Some of the key topics that we’ll cover include:

  • Creating a cluster with Azure CLI
  • Using the Azure CLI in an idempotent way, so you can run and re-run the code without generating warnings and errors
  • We’ll switch to using Terraform, and see how useful the module for Azure AKS is, which may be all you need to spin up some test clusters
  • We’ll spend the bulk of the course on walking through the AKS Baseline Cluster from the Azure Architecture Centre, but converted from a massive Azure Bicep file into individual Terraform resources which are considerably easier to understand. This will enable you to use Terraform variables to toggle the creation of the resources you need in your own context.
