Sovereign Clouds

Sovereign clouds

In addition to Public Azure Cloud that most of us are familiar with, there’s also separate sovereign Azure clouds for US Government and China.

To use AzOps with one of the sovereign clouds, the following additional configuration is required.

1. Create the ARM_ENVIRONMENT variable/secret with the sovereign cloud environment name as value, for example AzureUSGovernment or AzureChinaCloud.
   GitHub Actions
   Azure DevOps
   
2. Update "Core.DefaultDeploymentRegion" in settings.json to a supported region in the sovereign cloud, for example usgovvirginia for Azure US Government and chinaeast2 for Azure China.
3. Run a pull to validate settings and populate the repository.
