09 Using Terraform to take Azure Stack from Cool to Sub Zero!
summary
Shows that Terraform can deploy real Azure Stack infrastructure so the same IaC works on public cloud and on-premises, with examples using Rancher and ARM templates to provision Kubernetes clusters, VMs and marketplace images. Describes edge and disconnected uses, a military/ruggedized scenario, multi-tenant hosting, and a client who saves €1,000/month on egress by keeping data local. Notes current limits like no v-net service endpoints and public IP/VNet integration gaps while demonstrating practical operator automation with PowerShell and Terraform.
