terraform-az-fk-public-ip

This repository contains a reusable Terraform / OpenTofu module and progressive examples for deploying Azure Public IP resources in a clean, explicit, and architecture-aware way.

It is part of the FoggyKitchen.com training ecosystem and is designed as a dedicated public IP identity building block for Azure networking.

Support expectations are documented in SUPPORT.md.

Used By

This module is used as a building block by the higher-level FoggyKitchen Landing Zone Orchestrator, where it is composed into Azure, OCI, and multicloud landing zone patterns.

Purpose

The goal of this repository is to provide a clear, educational, and composable reference implementation for Azure Public IP using Infrastructure as Code.

It focuses on:

  • Public IP as a first-class Azure networking resource
  • Explicit modeling of:
    • allocation method
    • SKU and SKU tier
    • DNS label and FQDN
    • IP version and zones
    • DDoS protection mode
  • Clean integration with:
    • NAT Gateway
    • Bastion
    • Load Balancer
    • public-facing workloads

This is not a landing zone, platform framework, or full connectivity stack.
It is a learning-first building block designed to integrate cleanly with other FoggyKitchen modules.

What the Module Does

The module creates:

  • one Azure Public IP resource
  • optional DNS label
  • optional zones
  • optional IP tags
  • optional DDoS protection settings

The module intentionally does not create or manage:

  • Virtual Networks or subnets
  • NAT Gateway
  • Load Balancer
  • Bastion
  • Virtual Machines

Each of those concerns belongs in its own dedicated module.

Example Usage

module "public_ip" {
  source = "git::https://github.com/foggykitchen/terraform-az-fk-public-ip.git?ref=v1.0.0"

  name                = "fk-pip"
  location            = "westeurope"
  resource_group_name = "fk-rg"

  allocation_method = "Static"
  sku               = "Standard"
  domain_name_label = "foggykitchen-demo"

  tags = {
    project = "foggykitchen"
    env     = "dev"
  }
}

Outputs

Output Description
id Public IP resource ID
name Public IP resource name
ip_address Allocated public IP address
fqdn Allocated FQDN
domain_name_label Configured DNS label

Design Philosophy

  • Public IP should be modeled explicitly, not hidden inside unrelated networking modules
  • Public reachability and outbound identity are architectural decisions
  • One module = one responsibility
  • Public IP ownership should remain auditable and composable

This repository intentionally avoids burying Public IP behavior behind unrelated service abstractions.
