Infrastructure as a Code:

quick Azure resource to Terraform transformation with Terrafy

IaC is one of the basics in the DevOps world. It helps keep infrastructure updated, configurable from code, and able to store all changes. When infrastructure is configured using UI, Terrafy steps in. It is a terraform-based solution that can help you easily transform UI infrastructure into a code-based one.

We will talk about:

Infrastructure as a code
Terraform as a cloud-independent infrastructure maintenance
Azure and Terrafy. ARM templates and how to transform them to terraform code
Pros and cons of the Terrafy approach
