Deploying PostgreSQL to Azure with Bicep | Citus Con 2023

Video of a conference talk by Pamela Fox about repeatable Postgres deployments on Azure (using Bicep!) given at Citus Con: An Event for Postgres 2023. Repeatable deployments are ones that you can redo and know that your infrastructure will be configured exactly the way you like it. For Azure deployments, the Bicep language enables you to programmatically describe your Azure infrastructure and deploy a whole web app stack with a single command.
Pamela explains the basics of using Bicep to deploy an app, with a focus on configuring Flexible Servers in the Azure Database for PostgreSQL managed service. She shows firewall configuration, secret generation and Key Vault storage, and virtual network setup.
Pamela Fox loves to learn, teach, and create. She's currently a Cloud Advocate in Python at Microsoft, where she helps developers use Python with the many Azure offerings.
On the teaching front, Pamela has taught computer science at UC Berkeley and volunteered in bay area classrooms as part of the TEALS, GirlsWhoCode, and CoderDojo organizations. She also started the SF chapter of GirlDevelopIt, where she taught dozens of web development workshops.
Pamela's been in the tech industry for 15 years now, starting at Google as one of their first developer advocates. Pamela went on to be an early full-stack engineer at Coursera and spent many years after at Khan Academy, both as an engineer and the creator of the computer programming content.
