Infrastructure as Code (IaC)

DevOps

Infrastructure as Code is the process of managing and provisioning computing infrastructure through machine-readable definition files, rather than physical hardware configuration or interactive configuration tools.

Key Principles
  • 1Define infrastructure in code
  • 2Version control infrastructure definitions
  • 3Automate infrastructure provisioning and management
  • 4Treat infrastructure code with the same practices as application code
Benefits
  • 1Enables consistent and repeatable infrastructure deployments
  • 2Reduces manual errors and configuration drift
  • 3Facilitates infrastructure testing and validation
  • 4Improves documentation and knowledge sharing
