Just a brief post to discuss the future of the AzurePublicIPAddresses PowerShell module.
This weekend I spoke at the Global Azure Bootcamp 2019. This was another great day, this year hosted at Swinburne University.
A new version of the AzurePublicIPAddresses module has been released. This includes support for 8 new regions: UAE, South Adrican, Chile, and Brazil.
Azure Automation State Configuration (previously Azure Automation DSC), is a service provided by Azure that allows you to write, manage and compile PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) configurations and assign these configurations to target virtual machines (or any server or workstation to be honest). On its own, State Configuration provides some basic configuration examples, but its true power comes form the ability for you to define your own configurations.
It was a wonderful experience to present at the Azure Global Bootcamp in Melbourne this year. This year I spoke about possible methods or patterns for securing Azure resources. This is an extremely board topic, though I focused on App Services, Virtual Network Endpoints and ARM templates.
I'm pleased to announce Version 1.0 of AzurePublicIPAddresses. This version includes support 6 new Azure regions:
Australia Central
Australia Central 2
UK North
UK South 2
North Europe 2 (name TBC)
East Europe (name TBC)
This release also represents a major milestone since the modules creation back in March 2016. The module has proven to be very stable, and hence I'm now giving it the stable 1.0 moniker. I'm confident that the existing design should support any new regions or source XML files that Microsoft may release without the need for breaking changes.
I'm pleased to announce that my PowerShell for working with Azure’s public IP address listings now supports the new Azure Regions in France and Germany. This release, 0.9, introduces some minor breaking changes, needed to support the Germany regions.
