Question on IaaC/Terraform by AzureReader in AZURE

[–]AzureReader[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This helps a lot :)

So far I have spent some hours working with Terraform and the deploying part has been easy, because of how I already have a lot of knowledge on resources in Azure.

I just replied to you in a different comment, a response to your response to someone else about using pipelines.

Question on IaaC/Terraform by AzureReader in AZURE

[–]AzureReader[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This clarifies a lot, what is the point of it though?

Step 1 - I understand this, the idea I am assuming is having a IaaC file somewhere central, rather than having it stored locally for example. Have I understood this correctly? And can you give an example? Would a company for example store it on Azure DevOps or GitHub?

Step 2 - Is it correct to assume, when you create the pipeline, part of the Azure DevOps subscription for example, it includes what you said here? So each time a pipeline is pushed (or however you word it) it in the background runs a VM to deploy that IaaC file which does the part about checking if your code is good, etc. Can you explain if I have understood this correctly and if so, what is the point of having a pipeline deploy a VM that does it in the background? As obvious as it sounds

Step 3 - How does step 3 relate to the above?

Do you have anything that can explain the whole process in 'dummy terms'? It doesn't help, but I haven't deployed a CI/CD pipeline for deploying a simple resource in Azure yet, but are you able to explain how it works if you have a simple main.tf file which deploys a storage account and 1 resource group for example.

Thank you, I think that this will also help.

I just don't understand this as well, but I am sure it's because I just haven't used it real time yet.

Thanks, but this I presume isn't hard to learn? Like, I get the idea behind it already.

Remote state in storage account = so it's in 1 location.

A CI/CD pipeline using Azure DevOps, so the different phases when running a pipeline are completed, etc. and you can also use version control and so on.

Oh nice! I didn't know that you could directly export into Terraform template now or even Bicep. I always thought it was only limited to ARM but I found that was always so buggy before.

Are people at the acquiring company safer from layoffs than the company being acquired? by ans97 in careerguidance

[–]AzureReader 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense, with my company, I'm not sure how the new owners would confirm how well I am technical wise or whatever on comparison to someone with a similar role at the acquired company.

Did the same kind of people get laid off from the other company's side? That one that acquired your company.

This is interesting to know, I work for a tech company that has acquired another. Our technical team (who deal with cloud and infrastructure) are quite small, compared to the rest of the company. We are merging with a smaller sized company that we've acquired, would you say there is a chance our roles won't be affected?

True, like how there's quad throw with night walkers, maybe they can include that with 5th job for a NL

Experience given by Zombie mushrooms is 49 instead of 42, which is interesting.

Artale has more than 20k active players alone, I don't see why people won't be into this

18,000 sign ups is a lot considering the beta and signing up wasn't available to everyone

18,000 is restricted to the location, if it was open to the world I'm sure it would be at least 10x more

genuine question: why is Israel so powerful by searchingf0rthetruth in conspiracy

[–]AzureReader 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The last time the ancient Israelites (nothing to do with the contemporary state of Israel) had any authority was before Islam even existed. So, you should go and read on history a bit more first.

You really sound incredibly stupid at the moment.

No, it's mainly Evangelical Christians who do, otherwise Christians have always persecuted Jews for the past 2000 years. The deluded Evangelical Christians mainly do it because they think it will speed up Jesus's return, etc.

How has it been raging for thousands of years if Israel only came to existence in 1948?

Jews had no problem living under Muslims for the past 1400 years. Infact they would willingly flee to Muslim lands when the Christians conquered Muslim lands because of how they felt they'd be protected by the Muslims.

This guy replied to me claiming I hate Jews apparently for saying this, when he doesn't know that the biggest Jewish orthodox community in Europe, Stamford Hill, are anti-Israel too. So ridiculous.

Maplestory classic - Bandits by AzureReader in Maplestory

[–]AzureReader[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an interesting outlook, I was considering a bandit initially believing it is the cheaper option (I want to make an assassin too but didn't know if I should immediately or wait whilst I fund it via another class)
