What is Infrastructure as Code?
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is the practice of managing and provisioning computing infrastructure through machine-readable definition files, rather than physical hardware configuration or interactive configuration tools. Think of it as writing code to define and deploy your servers, networks, and other infrastructure components in a consistent and repeatable manner. This approach enables version control, automation, and faster deployments compared to traditional manual processes.
