Announcing the launch of “Azure Terraformer”, a YouTube channel dedicated to helping developers and platform engineers harness the power of Terraform to automate Microsoft Azure.

I’m starting this channel because I feel like the Azure community has been a bit left behind by some of those “other” clouds. If you throw a rock at a group of Terraformers (please don’t) you will most certainly hit an AWS guy. This is a truly sad state of affairs! Terraform is so much more than AWS or just one cloud! That’s why I want to help other folks who call Azure their home discover the power and joy of using Terraform to streamline their processes and make their lives easier–whether you’re shipping software or managing infrastructure!

On this journey, I hope to share my own practical insights through hands-on tutorials. I might drop onto my whiteboard to discuss cloud architecture or solution design. Nothing is scripted. I will make mistakes, and that’s O.K. We all make mistakes. Sometimes the greatest lessons are learned from putting your foot into a trap! I want you to see me make mistakes so that you are better prepared when you run into the same issues on your own!

Although Terraform and Azure are the primary focus areas for this channel, I’ll also explore tangential technologies relevant to any “Azure Terraformer”.

So join me, the Azure Terraformer, on my journey to Terraform Azure, and you too will become an Azure Terraformer!!!
