Früchte des Herzens - MindMap

Kürzlich habe ich mir den Vortrag “Übers Wasser gehen für Anfänger” von Johannes Hartl angehört. Der Vortrag behandelt das Thema: ‘Wie gehst du mit tiefer Trauer und tiefem Leid um?’
Gegen Ende des Vortrags zeigt er, welche möglichen Früchte auf dem Boden herausfordernder Situationen entstehen können – sogenannte ‘Früchte des Herzens’. Diese habe ich in folgender Mindmap veranschaulicht:

(2/2) How to use Terraform from local Machine additionally to Azure DevOps Pipeline (2 Part Series)

In the latest blog post (1/2) Setting up Azure workload identity federation with Terraform in Azure DevOps pipelines (2 Part Series) we learned how to setup Azure DevOps using Workload Identiy Federation

Because we are using a managed identity and not a service principal with a secret that has a certain lifetime, we are not directly able to run terraform from locally.

But what about using a service principal for local activities whose secret will expire after a few hours instead of months?
This wasn’t practical when using a service principal in the service connection. Typically, the secret had a longer lifetime, so it didn’t need to be renewed every time within the service connection.
