Summary

In this chapter, we have spoken about the example project we are going to look at deploying into Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services in the next two chapters using both Terraform and Ansible. While we have kept the discussion at a high level and aimed to be as cloud-agnostic as possible, we know the tasks we need to follow and roughly how we will get around the limitation of Terraform not really being a tool you can use to manage your application deployment.

Now that we know what our cloud and software architecture is going to look like, as well as having an idea of the order in which we need to deploy the resources, we can make a start on getting into the low-level design and the actual deployments. In our next chapter, we will look at deploying the workload discussed to Microsoft Azure.
