HashiCorp to Extend Work with Microsoft in Multi-Year Collaboration That Enables HashiCorp Terraform Users to More Easily Adopt Microsoft Azure

HashiCorp and Microsoft Work to Deepen Terraform Support for Cloud Infrastructure Provisioning on Azure


SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Aug 17, 2017) - HashiCorp, a leader in cloud infrastructure automation, today announced a multi-year collaboration with Microsoft to deepen support for the provisioning of Microsoft Azure cloud services with HashiCorp Terraform. HashiCorp Terraform is widely used by the Global 2000 to build, change, and version cloud and on-premises infrastructure safely and efficiently using a consistent workflow.

With this collaboration, Microsoft and HashiCorp commit to broaden the number of Azure services that can be provisioned with Terraform, allowing Terraform users to adopt a familiar workflow across their Azure and on-premises environments. Using Terraform to move workloads to Azure will simplify the cloud adoption process for Microsoft customers that use Terraform today across all of their infrastructure types.

This collaboration will focus on the enhancement of the existing Terraform Provider for Azure as well as joint go-to-market efforts.

"A key element of our mission is to enable organizations to provision, secure, connect, and run applications on the infrastructure of their choice," said David McJannet, CEO of HashiCorp. "As an ever-larger number of Global 2000 organizations adopt cloud infrastructure, Microsoft Azure is seeing tremendous growth. Through this collaboration, our Terraform customers can confidently utilize their provisioning tool of choice on the world-class Azure infrastructure."

"It is critically important that we help our customers with their cloud adoption efforts, and providing the tools they will need to be successful is vital," said Corey Sanders, head of product for Azure Compute, Microsoft Corp. "For our mutual customers, the commitment between HashiCorp Terraform and Microsoft to deliver deeper support for Microsoft Azure will help to accelerate the adoption of Azure as a core element of their hybrid cloud architecture."
