Would I replace Terraform with Bicep ? 💪🏽

• bicep

  74 3,111 0.0 Bicep

  Bicep is a declarative language for describing and deploying Azure resources

  

  Bicep is open source with a strong community supporting it. All the binaries for the different supported operating systems can be downloaded from the official releases page of the Bicep open source project.

• terraform

  500 41,053 9.9 Go

  Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.

  

  For a long time I have been a huge fan of Terraform by Hashicorp for deploying my Azure cloud services. This is mainly due to finding ARM templates to be too verbose and cumbersome to work with - Microsoft’s response to these complaints is Bicep.

• Pulumi

  178 19,630 9.9 Go

  Pulumi - Infrastructure as Code in any programming language. Build infrastructure intuitively on any cloud using familiar languages 🚀

  

  But keep in mind, there are also other tools such as Pulumi. An IaC tool that also utilizes the benefit of the provider-based architecture, but also adds the ability to use a real programming language when creating your desired state.

  Accelerating new GitHub Actions workflows

  

  If, like me, you're using GitHub Actions for your CI/CD pipeline, there is already a Bicep action created by Microsoft Developer Advocate Justin Yoo which you can use to build you bicep file and deploy it to Azure.
