TERRAFORM AZURE PROVIDER GAINS BROAD SERVICE COVERAGE ACROSS 5 PULL REQUESTS
By RepoJournal · Filed · About HashiCorp
HashiCorp shipped five separate PRs expanding terraform-provider-azurerm support across services S through W, while Packer's Amazon plugin fixes critical retry failures.
The terraform-provider-azurerm team moved five feature additions into review overnight, each adding support for two new Azure services [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. These span Services E through W, representing methodical expansion of the provider's surface area across multiple Azure offerings. Over on the Packer side, amazon-plugin v1.8.1 [6] shipped a critical fix for ShouldRetry callbacks that were silently dropping errors, causing transient AWS API failures like InvalidAMIID.NotFound and InvalidSnapshot.NotFound to bypass retry logic entirely [6]. The plugin also tightened IAM instance profile propagation to eliminate race conditions during launch [6]. Routine dependency bumps landed across vscode-terraform (qs package update) and homebrew-tap (workflow-dispatch action) , both low-priority maintenance moves.
