Abstract
In this chapter, we will go through the exercise of using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) to deploy the SharePoint 2016 farm to a staging environment in the Azure cloud. We do this by using one of the most sought after and reliable tools out on the market—Terraform by HashiCorp. Before coding our infrastructure, we will code our Packer image template to target Azure RM. The end result of our Packer exercise will be a VHD image that we can use in Terraform to build our SharePoint virtual machines.
