This article provides a cheatsheet on the Infrastructure as Code (IaC) landscape, highlighting the benefits of scalable infrastructure provisioning in terms of availability, scalability, repeatability, and cost-effectiveness. It discusses strategies such as containerization, container orchestration, and tools like Terraform, Kubernetes, and Ansible. The article also introduces GitOps as a method for automating infrastructure updates through Git workflows and CI/CD.
An introduction to using Terraform for Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices, providing beginners with a guide to start with Terraform.
An in-depth exploration of using Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate Terraform code for infrastructure as code (IaC), analyzing the capabilities and limitations of LLMs in this domain.
All models struggled with:
- Variable usage (hardcoded values)
- IAM configuration (permissions)
- Security group management
- Target group configuration
While LLMs are promising for IaC, they can be helpful tools for developers.
