How to Provision Azure AKS Cluster Using Terraform
This article demonstrates how to create an AKS (Azure Kubernetes Service) cluster on Azure using Terraform with just four lines of code by calling the official azurerm registry module. The author explains that a module is a collection of .tf configuration files defining multiple related resources, which can be reused in different projects. They also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using public modules from the Terraform registry, such as time-saving but less control over the code. The article provides an example of customizing the AKS deployment with Terraform by setting various inputs and outputs. Finally, it suggests using Spacelift for managing complexities and compliance challenges when working with Terraform.
