AGENDA
• Introduzione al mondo IaC in Azure con ARM Templates
• PowerShell DSC
• Deployment di una VM

L’approccio next-next-next non è più cosa…
TEST

Infrastructure as Code
• Modello dichiarativo
• Version Control
• Automazione
• CI/CD
• Evita derive di configurazione
• Traccia le dipendenze delle risorse
• Ambienti riproducibili

• Soluzione IaC di Azure
• IaaS, PaaS, Serverless
• Raggruppa risorse e gestisce
dipendenze
• Distribuisce, aggiorna, rimuove
in un’unica operazione
• Un template per più ambienti
Azure Resource Manager templates

Struttura di un template

Parametri
Schema:
"parameters": {
"<parameter-name>" : {
"type" : "<type-of-parameter-value>",
"defaultValue": "<default-value-of-parameter>",
"allowedValues": [ "<array-of-allowed-values>" ],
"minValue": <minimum-value-for-int>,
"maxValue": <maximum-value-for-int>,
"minLength": <min-length-for-string-or-array>,
"maxLength": <max-length-for-string-or-array>,
"metadata": {
"description": "<description-of-the parameter>"
}
}
}
Esempio:
"parameters": {
"storageSKU": {
"type": "string",
"allowedValues": [
"Standard_LRS",
"Premium_LRS"
],
"defaultValue": "Standard_LRS",
"metadata": {
"description": "The tier of storage account."
}
}
}
Utilizzo all’interno del template:
"resources": [
{
"type": "Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts",
"sku": {
"name": "[parameters('storageSKU')]"
},
...
}
]

PowerShell Desired State Configuration
• Sistema di configuration management basato su PowerShell
• Funziona sia su Windows che su OSS
• Elementi chiave:
• Configurazioni  componente dichiarativa
• Risorse  componente imperativa
• Tre funzioni: Test, Get, Set
• Reperibili da PSGallery  Find-DscResource
• Local Configuration Manager
• PUSH e PULL
• Integrazione negli ARM template  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-
us/azure/virtual-machines/extensions/dsc-template

Configurazione DSC di esempio
Configuration WebsiteTest {
# Import the module that contains the resources we're using
Import-DscResource -ModuleName PsDesiredStateConfiguration
# The Node statement specifies which targets this configuration will be applied to.
Node 'localhost' {
# The first resource block ensures that the Web-Server (IIS) feature is enabled.
WindowsFeature WebServer {
Ensure = "Present"
Name = "Web-Server"
}
# The second resource block ensures that the website content copied to the website root folder.
File WebsiteContent {
Ensure = 'Present'
SourcePath = 'c:testindex.htm'
DestinationPath = 'c:inetpubwwwroot'
}
}
}

Procedura di integrazione in ARM template
Creare
configurazione DSC
Creare uno ZIP
contenente
configurazione e
risorse
Caricare lo ZIP su un
repository
Inserire estensione
nell’ARM Template
