Quick post about Terraform

Terraform w/ OpenStack provider It's been a while since I posted to this blog so thought I'd revive it by putting up a quick update on what I've experienced with Terraform using the OpenStack provider recently. At work, I've been the owner of the deployment of FortiSwitch Cloud in new regions. The platform that the application is running on is Kubernetes which itself is running on VMware Integrated OpenStack (VIO). We might discuss them in further detail in future posts.  One of the steps in the deployment entailed creating a new network in OpenStack (project network specifically, you can read more about OpenStack networking here ). I tried creating a network by defining a Terraform Resource block, a simplified version is shown below: resource "openstack_networking_network_v2" "network_1" { name = "network_1" admin_state_up = "true" } resource "openstack_networking_subnet_v2" "subnet_1"
