Getting Started with Containers in Azure: Deploy Secure Cloud Applications Using Terraform

Master the skills needed to deploy container services on Microsoft Azure using Terraform. This book will take you through the entire process of designing, deploying, and managing container services such as Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Azure Container Instances (ACI), Azure Container Registry (ACR), and Azure Web App for Containers.

In this fully updated second edition, Author Shimon Ifrah demonstrates how to use Terraform, PowerShell and Azure CLI to provision and manage container services in Azure. As you'll be using Terraform as the main tool for deployment, a basic knowledge of Terraform is a prerequisite. In addition, you will see how Azure DevOps services can be used to deploy infrastructure and container services with Terraform using Azure Pipelines without using the Azure Portal. The book concludes with a tutorial on how to use Azure Defender for Cloud to safeguard Terraform and infrastructure-as-code against malicious threats, so you can deliver secure applications.

Upon completing this book, you will have a thorough understanding of how to use Terraform to deploy secure and efficient cloud applications on Azure.

What You Will Learn

• Leverage Terraform for the deployment of containerized services
• Understand Azure DevOps Pipelines and Repos to deploy infrastructure and container services.
• Safeguard your infrastructure-as-code and detect vulnerabilities using Azure Defender for the cloud

Who This Book Is For

Azure administrators, developers, and architects who want to get started and learn more about containers and containerized applications on Microsoft Azure.

掌握使用Terraform在Microsoft Azure上部署容器服務所需的技能。本書將帶領您完成設計、部署和管理容器服務的整個過程，例如Azure Kubernetes Service（AKS）、Azure Container Instances（ACI）、Azure Container Registry（ACR）和Azure Web App for Containers。

在這本完全更新的第二版中，作者Shimon Ifrah演示了如何使用Terraform、PowerShell和Azure CLI在Azure中提供和管理容器服務。由於您將使用Terraform作為部署的主要工具，因此基本的Terraform知識是必要的。此外，您還將了解如何使用Azure DevOps服務在不使用Azure Portal的情況下使用Azure Pipelines部署基礎架構和容器服務。本書以教程的形式介紹了如何使用Azure Defender for Cloud來保護Terraform和基礎架構代碼免受惡意威脅，以便您可以交付安全的應用程序。

完成本書後，您將全面了解如何使用Terraform在Azure上部署安全高效的雲應用程序。
