Microsoft Azure and HashiCorp have collaborated for nearly a decade, resulting in the 1 billionth download of the Terraform AzureRM provider. This milestone highlights the growth of cloud automation and infrastructure as code on Azure, with the provider abstracting complexity and ensuring compatibility among resources. The provider has grown to support hundreds of Azure services and integrations with other tools, and its development is a testament to the partnership between HashiCorp and Microsoft engineers. Reaching 1 billion downloads showcases the trust organizations place in HashiCorp Terraform and Microsoft Azure, with real-world use cases including scalable internal platforms, GitOps workflows, and managing infrastructure in highly regulated environments. The milestone also reflects the strength of the community, with thousands of GitHub issues and pull requests shaping the provider into what it is today. As Azure continues to expand its platform, new services and features are released, and the Terraform AzAPI provider complements the main Azure provider by enabling direct interaction with Azure Resource Manager templates. The partnership between HashiCorp and Microsoft will continue to focus on expanding provider coverage, performance, and integrations into Microsoft's developer ecosystem, as well as adding new features and functionality to support customers in managing infrastructure more securely and efficiently.
