Abstract

Cloud computing is becoming more and more popular every year. The skill of building reusable  infrastructure has never been more in demand than it is now. In order to be able to automate and standardize the infrastructure creation process, IaC tools appeared. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is the management and provisioning of infrastructure through code instead of manual processes. With IaC, configuration files are created that contains infrastructure specifications, making it easy to edit and distribute the configuration. It also ensures that it creates an identical environment and identical resources every time. In this area of DevOps, the biggest rivals are Terraform and Pulumi.
