How to Provision Serverless Infrastructure Using Terraform and Azure Pipelines
summary
Provisioning creates an Azure Function App, App Service Plan and Storage Account from Terraform modules, then deploys a .NET Core Durable Function via Azure Pipelines using a hosted build agent that runs git clone, installs Terraform, and executes Terraform validate, plan, apply. Reusable modules live in a separate repo and prevent copy‑paste drift. The pipeline runs CI/CD, takes 4 minutes 11 seconds to provision and deploy, and the orchestrator returns combined greetings confirming the function works.
