+Deploying VyOS in the Azure cloud
+=================================
+
+With the help of Terraform, you can quickly deploy VyOS-based infrastructure in the Azure cloud. If necessary, the infrastructure can be removed using terraform.
+Also we will make provisioning using Ansible.
+
+In this case, we'll create the necessary files for Terraform and Ansible next using Terraform we'll create a single instance on the Azure cloud and make provisioning using Ansible.
+
+Preparation steps for deploying VyOS on Azure
+---------------------------------------------
+
+How to create a single instance and install your configuration using Terraform+Ansible+Azure
+Step by step:
+
+Azure
+
+ 1 Create an account with Azure
+
+Terraform
+
+
+ 1 Create an UNIX or Windows instance
+
+ 2 Download and install Terraform
+
+ 3 Create the folder for example /root/azvyos/
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ mkdir /root/azvyos
+
+ 4 Copy all files into your Terraform project "/root/azvyos" (vyos.tf, var.tf, terraform.tfvars), more detailed see `Structure of files Terrafom for Azure`_
+
+ 5 Login with Azure using the command
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ az login
+
+2.6 Type the commands :
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ cd /<your folder>
+ terraform init
+
+Ansible
+
+
+ 1 Create an UNIX instance whenever you want (local, cloud, and so on)
+
+ 2 Download and install Ansible
+
+ 3 Create the folder for example /root/az/
+
+ 4 Copy all files into your Ansible project "/root/az/" (ansible.cfg, instance.yml,"all"), more detailed see `Structure of files Ansible for Azure`_
+
+
+Start
+
+
+Type the commands on your Terrafom instance:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ cd /<your folder>
+ terraform plan
+ terraform apply
+ yes
+
+After executing all the commands you will have your VyOS instance on the Azure cloud with your configuration, it's a very convenient desition.
+If you need to delete the instance please type the command:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ terraform destroy
