Terraform is my go-to tool for repeatable and easy infrastructure deployments. I've previously shared how I deploy Elasticsearch on AWS with Terraform and Packer, and since posting that I used it to deploy many clusters, and it also got picked up by quite a few others.

Our offerings at BigData Boutique are cloud-agnostic and as such we also help projects deployed on clouds other clouds. Today we will be looking at deploying a full Elasticsearch cluster, using best practices end-to-end, on Microsoft Azure.
