reg1-shared-infra Documentation
This documentation provides an overview of the folder structure and the purpose of the files in the reg1-shared-infra repository. This Terraform configuration manages shared infrastructure components for Azure resources.

Key Files
data.tf
This file contains the configuration for data sources. Data sources allow Terraform to reference existing resources and pull information about them. This can include fetching information about existing infrastructure such as networks, resource groups, or specific resources in Azure.
outputs.tf
The outputs.tf file specifies the values that are returned after the execution of a Terraform configuration. These outputs are often used for integration with other configurations or for reference purposes.
locals.tf
In this file, local variables are defined. These variables help simplify the Terraform configuration by allowing the reuse of values and expressions.
versions.tf
The versions.tf file is used to specify the required versions of Terraform and the providers. It ensures that the right versions are used to prevent incompatibility issues.
aks-cluster.tf
This file manages the configuration of the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), specifying the infrastructure needed to deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications using Kubernetes on Azure.
acr.tf
This file configures the Azure Container Registry (ACR), which is used to store and manage container images for the AKS cluster.
variables.tf
All variables used in the Terraform configuration are declared in this file. It defines the input variables for the infrastructure setup.
tfvars/
This folder likely contains .tfvars files, which are used to pass different sets of variable values for different environments, such as development, staging, or production.
modules/
This directory contains reusable modules that can be referenced in the main configuration files. Modules make it easier to manage and scale Terraform configurations by encapsulating related resources and logic.
How to Use
- Ensure that the correct versions of Terraform and the necessary providers are installed as specified in the
versions.tf. - Configure the
tfvars/files with appropriate values for different environments.
