Google Cloud: DNS Overview
Introduction DNS is a hierarchical distributed database that stores IP addresses and other data and allows queries by name. In other words, DNS is a directory of easily readable domain names that translate to numeric IP addresses used by computers to communicate with each other. For example, when you type a URL into a browser, […]
Google Cloud: Interacting with Terraform Modules and Working with Terraform Registry
Overview As you manage your infrastructure with Terraform, increasingly complex configurations will be created. There is no intrinsic limit to the complexity of a single Terraform configuration file or directory, so it is possible to continue writing and updating your configuration files in a single directory. However, if you do, you may encounter one or […]
