Blog --> https://gmusumeci.medium.com/how-to-deploy-an-azure-postgresql-flexible-server-with-private-endpoint-using-terraform-d0bebcab69be

Code creates:

• Resource Group
• VNET and Subnet
• Private DNS
• Private DNS Zone Virtual Network Link for PostgreSQL
• PostgreSQL Flexible Server
• PostgreSQL Private Endpoint
• PostgreSQL Database
• PostgreSQL Extensions

Variables

List of variables used in this code to configure the PostgreSQL Flexible Server:

Variable	Description	Type
location	The region in which this module should be deployed	string
company	This variable defines the company name used to build resources	string
app_name	This variable defines the application name used to build resources	string
environment	This variable defines the environment to be built	string
tags	The collection of tags to be applied to all resources	map(string)
vnet_address_space	CIDR of the VNET	string
pe_subnet_address_space	CIDR of the Subnet used for Private Endpoint	string
private_dns_resource_group	The Resource Group where the Private DNS for PostgreSQL was created	string
postgres_user	The username for PostgreSQL administrator login	string
postgres_password	The password for PostgreSQL administrator login	string
postgres_server_sku	PostgreSQL server type	string
postgres_server_version	PostgreSQL server version (Possible values are 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16)	string
postgres_server_storage_mb	PostgreSQL server storage in MB (Possible values are 32768, 65536, 131072, 262144, 524288, 1048576, 2097152, 4193280, 4194304, 8388608, 16777216 and 33553408)	number
postgres_server_storage_tier	PostgreSQL server storage tier (Possible values are P4, P6, P10, P15,P20, P30,P40, P50,P60, P70 or P80)	string
postgres_admin_access_cidr	PostgreSQL admin access CIDR	string
postgres_database_collation	Specifies the Collation for the Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server Database	string
postgres_database_charset	Specifies the charset for the Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Server Database	string

Private DNS Zone

A private DNS zone is required; if you need one, use the code below:

# Create the Resource Group for DNS Zone
resource "azurerm_resource_group" "dns_zone" {
  name     = "kopicloud-dns-rg"
  location = var.location
}

# Create Private DNS Zone for PostgreSQL
resource "azurerm_private_dns_zone" "postgres_dns_zone" {
  name                = "privatelink.postgres.database.azure.com"
  resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.dns_zone.name
}

How To deploy the code:

• Clone the repo
• Update variables to your environment
• Execute "terraform init"
• Execute "terraform apply"
