Terraform on Azure – Zero to Hero Terraform State and Azure policy Part 5

Описание: In this video, we continue building our Azure infrastructure using Terraform and move toward a more enterprise-ready and production-focused Infrastructure as Code architecture.

In the previous parts of this series, we created the Azure Resource Group, designed the Virtual Network, deployed an Azure Virtual Machine, and improved security using Network Security Groups (NSG) and Azure Bastion.

Now in Part 5, we focus on two very important real-world cloud engineering concepts: Governance and Remote State Management.

You will learn how to use Azure Policy to enforce organizational standards and prevent non-compliant resource deployments.
You will also configure Terraform Remote State using Azure Storage, which enables better collaboration, centralized state management, improved deployment reliability, and safer infrastructure operations.

In addition, we will enhance the Terraform project structure to follow a more modular and scalable design approach similar to what modern cloud teams use in enterprise environments.

By the end of this video, you will clearly understand how governance and state management play a critical role in real production cloud deployments.

🚀 This video is part of the Terraform Azure Zero-to-Hero series, designed to help cloud engineers build real-world Infrastructure as Code skills step by step.
