Instead of using Azure Resource Manager templates to provision your Azure resources, you can use HashiCorp Terraform to provision and manage Azure infrastructure directly.
Terraform is an open source tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be used to create, manage, and update infrastructure resources such as virtual machines (VMs), networks, and containers.
Terraform is installed and immediately available for you to use in Cloud Shell. Or you can install the Terraform extension in Visual Studio Code to develop and test Terraform files faster.
Because Terraform supports multiple providers, you’re free to use the same tool and process across multiple on-premises and cloud environments.
