Adios ARM, Hello Terraform

DevOps / SDLC, 0

Deploying infrastructure from code is awesome! Hand editing JSON files is not. In this session you will learn about some of the shortcomings of AWS CloudFormation and Azure Resource Manager Templates, and why I chose to use Terraform instead. I will demonstrate how to convert an existing ARM template to a Terraform configuration, highlighting the use of modules and variables. In addition, you will learn about some of the limitations of Terraform and potential workarounds.
