Quickstart: Create an Azure Batch account using Terraform - Azure Batch

Get started with Azure Batch by using Terraform to create a Batch account, including storage. You need a Batch account to create compute resources (pools of compute nodes) and Batch jobs. You can link an Azure Storage account with your Batch account. This pairing is useful to deploy applications and store input and output data for most real-world workloads.

After completing this quickstart, you'll understand the key concepts of the Batch service and be ready to try Batch with more realistic workloads at larger scale.

Terraform enables the definition, preview, and deployment of cloud infrastructure. Using Terraform, you create configuration files using HCL syntax. The HCL syntax allows you to specify the cloud provider - such as Azure - and the elements that make up your cloud infrastructure. After you create your configuration files, you create an execution plan that allows you to preview your infrastructure changes before they're deployed. Once you verify the changes, you apply the execution plan to deploy the infrastructure.

In this article, you learn how to:

Prerequisites Implement the Terraform code
  1. Create a directory in which to test and run the sample Terraform code and make it the current directory.

  2. Create a file named providers.tf and insert the following code:

    terraform {
      required_version = ">=1.0"
      required_providers {
        azurerm = {
          source  = "hashicorp/azurerm"
          version = "~>3.0"
        }
        random = {
          source  = "hashicorp/random"
          version = "~>3.0"
        }
      }
    }
    provider "azurerm" {
      features {}
    }
    
  3. Create a file named main.tf and insert the following code:

    resource "random_pet" "rg_name" {
      prefix = var.resource_group_name_prefix
    }
    
    resource "azurerm_resource_group" "rg" {
      name     = random_pet.rg_name.id
      location = var.resource_group_location
    }
    
    resource "random_string" "azurerm_storage_account_name" {
      length  = 13
      lower   = true
      numeric = false
      special = false
      upper   = false
    }
    
    resource "random_string" "azurerm_batch_account_name" {
      length  = 13
      lower   = true
      numeric = false
      special = false
      upper   = false
    }
    
    resource "azurerm_storage_account" "storage" {
      name                     = "storage${random_string.azurerm_storage_account_name.result}"
      resource_group_name      = azurerm_resource_group.rg.name
      location                 = azurerm_resource_group.rg.location
      account_tier             = element(split("_", var.storage_account_type), 0)
      account_replication_type = element(split("_", var.storage_account_type), 1)
    }
    
    resource "azurerm_batch_account" "batch" {
      name                                = "batch${random_string.azurerm_batch_account_name.result}"
      resource_group_name                 = azurerm_resource_group.rg.name
      location                            = azurerm_resource_group.rg.location
      storage_account_id                  = azurerm_storage_account.storage.id
      storage_account_authentication_mode = "StorageKeys"
    }
    
  4. Create a file named variables.tf and insert the following code:

    variable "resource_group_location" {
      type        = string
      default     = "eastus"
      description = "Location for all resources."
    }
    
    variable "resource_group_name_prefix" {
      type        = string
      default     = "rg"
      description = "Prefix of the resource group name that's combined with a random ID so name is unique in your Azure subscription."
    }
    
    variable "storage_account_type" {
      type        = string
      default     = "Standard_LRS"
      description = "Azure Storage account type."
      validation {
        condition     = contains(["Premium_LRS", "Premium_ZRS", "Standard_GRS", "Standard_GZRS", "Standard_LRS", "Standard_RAGRS", "Standard_RAGZRS", "Standard_ZRS"], var.storage_account_type)
        error_message = "Invalid storage account type. The value should be one of the following: 'Premium_LRS','Premium_ZRS','Standard_GRS','Standard_GZRS','Standard_LRS','Standard_RAGRS','Standard_RAGZRS','Standard_ZRS'."
      }
    }
    
  5. Create a file named outputs.tf and insert the following code:

    output "resource_group_name" {
      value = azurerm_resource_group.rg.name
    }
    
    output "batch_name" {
      value = azurerm_batch_account.batch.name
    }
    
    output "storage_name" {
      value = azurerm_storage_account.storage.name
    }
    
Initialize Terraform

Run terraform init to initialize the Terraform deployment. This command downloads the Azure provider required to manage your Azure resources.

terraform init -upgrade

Key points:

Create a Terraform execution plan

Run terraform plan to create an execution plan.

terraform plan -out main.tfplan

Key points:

Apply a Terraform execution plan

Run terraform apply to apply the execution plan to your cloud infrastructure.

terraform apply main.tfplan

Key points:

Verify the results
  1. Get the Azure resource group name.

    resource_group_name=$(terraform output -raw resource_group_name)
    
  2. Get the Batch account name.

    batch_name=$(terraform output -raw batch_name)
    
  3. Run az batch account show to display information about the new Batch account.

    az batch account show \
        --resource-group $resource_group_name \
        --name $batch_name
    
  1. Get the Azure resource group name.

    $resource_group_name=$(terraform output -raw resource_group_name)
    
  2. Get the Batch account name.

    $batch_name=$(terraform output -raw batch_name)
    
  3. Run Get-AzBatchAccount to display information about the new service.

    Get-AzBatchAccount -ResourceGroupName $resource_group_name `
                       -Name $batch_name
    
Clean up resources

When you no longer need the resources created via Terraform, do the following steps:

  1. Run terraform plan and specify the destroy flag.

    terraform plan -destroy -out main.destroy.tfplan
    

    Key points:

  2. Run terraform apply to apply the execution plan.

    terraform apply main.destroy.tfplan
