Overview of this book

In the implementation of DevOps processes, the choice of tools is crucial to the sustainability of projects and collaboration between developers and ops. This book presents the different patterns and tools for provisioning and configuring an infrastructure in the cloud, covering mostly open source tools with a large community contribution, such as Terraform, Ansible, and Packer, which are assets for automation. This DevOps book will show you how to containerize your applications with Docker and Kubernetes and walk you through the construction of DevOps pipelines in Jenkins as well as Azure pipelines before covering the tools and importance of testing. You'll find a complete chapter on DevOps practices and tooling for open source projects before getting to grips with security integration in DevOps using Inspec, Hashicorp Vault, and Azure Secure DevOps kit. You'll also learn about the reduction of downtime with blue-green deployment and feature flags techniques before finally covering common DevOps best practices for all your projects. By the end of this book, you'll have built a solid foundation in DevOps and developed the skills necessary to enhance a traditional software delivery process using modern software delivery tools and techniques.

Using a Packer image with Terraform

Now that we have generated a custom VM image, we will provision a new VM based on this new image. For the provisioning of this VM, we will continue to use IaC practices using Terraform from HashiCorp.

To do this, we will take the Terraform script created in Chapter 2, Provisioning Cloud Infrastructure with Terraform,, and modify it to use the custom image.

In the compute.tf script, add the following block of data, which will point to the VM image that we generated with Packer in the last section:

## GET THE CUSTOM IMAGE CREATED BY PACKER
data "azurerm_image" "customngnix" {
 name = "linuxWeb-0.0.1"
 resource_group_name = "rg_images"
}

In this code, we add a block of azurerm_image Terraform data that allows us to retrieve the properties of a VM image in Azure, in which we specify the name property with name of the custom image, and the resource_group_name property with the resource group of the image...
