Designing Azure VNets with Purpose-Driven Subnets (using Terraform Module)

Azure VNet Terraform Module – Explained An Azure VNet Terraform module is the foundation of every scalable Azure network architecture. Yet in many projects, virtual networks are still designed ad-hoc — without clear intent, subnet boundaries, or future workloads in mind. In this article, I’ll show how to design Azure …

Persistent Volumes in AKS with Terraform — The Role of Azure Managed Disks

If you’re exploring AKS persistent storage Terraform, one of the first questions you encounter is the same one developers have been asking for years: “Where do we put the data?” Containers are ephemeral. Pods restart. Nodes churn.Yet your application needs logs, caches, indexes, uploads — anything that must survive lifecycle …

AKS Autoscaling Node Pools with Terraform/OpenTofu — Turning Static Clusters into Elastic Infrastructure

In the previous article, we built a dedicated user node pool in Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS). In this post, we take the next step and introduce the AKS autoscaler Terraform configuration that transforms a static cluster into an elastic one. That setup is already a huge improvement over running everything …

đź§± What Is Infrastructure as Code (IaC)? A Practical Look with Terraform

Building cloud infrastructure once meant endless clicking through consoles and wizards. Today, engineers use Infrastructure as Code Terraform to describe and automate their environments — reproducible, version-controlled, and fully auditable. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) changed the way we think about deploying systems. Instead of manually creating VMs, networks, and storage, …

OCI Private DNS with Terraform/OpenTofu — Refactoring for 2025

When working with cloud networking, one of the most common needs is internal name resolution. In this post, I’ll show how to implement OCI Private DNS Terraform to automate private zones and records.  Hard-coding IPs is fragile. You want internal services to discover each other using hostnames. That’s exactly what …
