Deploy Azure Container Apps using Container Registry and Key Vault via Terraform
Date published:
Introduction
Azure Container Apps is a new service from Microsoft that allows you to deploy and manage containerised applications. With Azure Container Apps, you can quickly deploy your applications to the cloud without worrying about managing infrastructure or scaling your application. Terraform is an open-source tool that allows you to define and manage your infrastructure as code. By using Terraform to deploy your Azure Container Apps, you can automate the deployment process and ensure that your infrastructure is consistent across all environments.
Prerequisites
-
An Azure subscription: You’ll need an Azure subscription to create and manage your Azure Container Apps. If you don’t have an Azure subscription, you can sign up for a free trial at https://azure.microsoft.com/free/.
-
Terraform installed on your machine: You’ll need to install Terraform on your device to define and manage your infrastructure as code. You can download Terraform from the official website at https://www.terraform.io/downloads.html.
-
Container image: You’ll need a container image you want to deploy to your Azure Container App. You can use an existing container image or create your own using Docker.
-
Docker registry: You’ll need a registry to store your container image. You can use a public registry like Docker Hub or a private registry like Azure Container Registry.
