Using ClouDNS as a Provider With OpenTofu
In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, managing DNS infrastructure efficiently is crucial for seamless website performance and reliability. OpenTofu, a powerful Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tool, simplifies DNS management through automation and streamlined configuration. When paired with ClouDNS (a robust DNS hosting service known for its scalability and reliability) you can manage DNS records with precision and ease.
Migrating From Terraform to OpenTofu
I have been using Terraform to provision and maintain this domain’s DNS configuration. Recently, HashiCorp transitioned Terraform from its open-source MPL 2.0 license to the more restrictive Business Source License (BUSL). This change fundamentally alters the terms under which Terraform can be used and distributed, particularly in commercial contexts.
Creating the Old Website Archive
Having decided to include some of the old website as an Archive section, I needed a way to present this. I chose to implement it as a menu item, linking to a series, a feature provided by the Anatole theme.
Welcome to the Relaunch
After a period of time where I made no new posts, my website was starting to look a little stale. I decided on a refresh of both design and content. I’ve kept some of the old site in a new Archive section, and am looking forward to sharing my thoughts and experiences with you.
