Integrating Conditional Logic into Terraform Configurations in Azure
As companies start to build infrastructure using Terraform, the logic required to build self-service automation becomes complex. That's why HCL (HashiCorp Configuration Language) contains expressions that can perform calculations within Terraform configurations. Integrating conditional logic into modules allows them to become dynamic and reusable for different scenarios.
In this lab, you will create a Storage Account Module that contains conditional logic for deploying a Storage Account.
