How IaC (Infrastructure as a Code) Helps


Recommended Posts

Developing and managing cloud infrastructure is a complex process. It becomes a sticky wicket especially when you have a distributed team. With the continuous alterations in technology and methods, it has become trickier to provision, deploy and configure resources when we need to identify errors and come up with solutions on the go. Infrastructure as a Code (IaC) comes in handy in this situation. 

 

IaC is a method of defining your infrastructure through configuration files, also known as codes. It allows you to automate your infrastructure using high-level descriptive coding language-based configuration files. Plus, IaC helps you to supervise your configuration files as in a software code that comes with code repositories.

However, when it's about implementing infrastructure as code on AWS, people often boil down to Cloudformation and Terraform.
