Commodified IaC Using Terraform Cloud

Infrastructure as code has gained a lot of traction within DevOps culture over the past ten years and brought significant changes to how we manage IT infrastructure and its lifecycle. We want to deploy it as efficiently and frictionlessly as possible, and there are many different tools available we can choose from.

Using off-the-shelf SaaS solutions can save us a lot of time and other resources. At HashiConf 2019, Terraform Cloud was announced and made generally available, which confirms IaC is getting more commodified and easily available in a cloud-managed format.
