Cloud Infrastructure Automation with Go and Azure Resource Manager

Modern cloud engineering requires the speed and reliability of infrastructure as code. Writing Go programs to manage your cloud resources provides strong typing, rapid execution, and excellent maintainability. This text-based course guides you through using the Azure SDK for Go to automate your cloud deployments, ensuring your infrastructure is consistent and repeatable. You will start with foundational cloud concepts, understand Azure Resource Manager authentication, and quickly transition to writing clean, modern Go code to manage your environments. By the end of this course, you will be able to programmatically build, update, and tear down secure cloud systems. What you'll learn: Understand Azure Resource Manager fundamentals and the structure of Go SDK authentication; Create and organize resource groups to manage cloud lifecycle boundaries; Provision secure virtual networks and configure subnets using Go; Deploy and configure virtual machines programmatically; Practice clean code patterns with modern Go modules and proper error handling; Implement infrastructure cleanup routines to manage cloud costs. The course starts with basic concepts and identity management before moving step-by-step through network and compute provisioning. This course is designed for beginner cloud engineers, system administrators, and Go developers who want to learn infrastructure automation without any prior cloud-programming experience.
