Run WordPress on Ubuntu using Terraform, Ansible and Docker

Preface

If you’ve ever installed WordPress from scratch, you know what a challenge it can be. I wanted to make installing WordPress a bit easier and to do that, I thought I’d try to wrap the whole process around more automation.

I ended up using a few different tools to get the job done. As you will see below, there are many options for making things easier.

This article will demonstrate how to use:

  • Terraform to provision an Ubuntu virtual machine.
  • Ansible to install prerequisites and Docker on the host vm.
  • Docker to spin up containerized WordPress infrastructure including Apache, MySQL and PHP.
