SEP 11 2018 BURZIN PATEL

Since announcing a multi-year collaboration with HashiCorp, Microsoft has taken strides to ensure that HashiCorp tools operate as a first class citizen on Azure’s public cloud offering. Through the work of dedicated engineers from both Microsoft and HashiCorp, there have been a number of significant new features and integrations delivered over the past 12 months. The HashiCorp Terraform provider for Azure covers the majority of Azure Resource Manager services, some of which were highlighted in May at Microsoft Build. In April, HashiCorp Vault 0.10 enabled support for a new auth method for Azure Active Directory and most recently, Vault 0.11 introduced a new secrets engine for Azure.

To highlight the growing support for Terraform and Vault, Microsoft invited HashiCorp to participate in a series of technical videos for IT practitioners. Anubhav Mishra, developer advocate for HashiCorp, and Zachary Deptawa, cloud developer advocate for Microsoft, created four videos to introduce and educate users on how these tools work together and what challenges they address. Each video provides information and resources aimed at helping users get started provisioning, managing, and securing their infrastructure in Azure.
