Example Vagrant VM

An example Vagrant virtual machine setup with Docker and Terraform installed.

This example accompanies the book Bootstrapping Microservices. It's a practical and project based guide that takes you from a single microservice on your dev PC to a complete microservices application deployed to a production Kubenetes cluster.
