Demystifying Terraform - "Hardcore" to Core Infrastructure... Tool
summary
Practical demo of Terraform used to build Azure infrastructure for Ticketmaster and Stack Overflow, showing actual configs, the terraform 0.11 language quirks (no booleans, count hack for conditionals), modules wired from local folders or the public registry, and CI validation where module tests run with Pester and tear down after passing. Shows state management advice — move the tfstate to state backend in Azure blob rather than local files — and cites real scale: typical site is around 150 resources in 45–50 minutes. Also covers outputs, sensitive flags, and caching of downloaded modules.
