A company wants to automate its infrastructure provisioning to ensure that deployments are repeatable and predictable. Which method involves defining and managing compute infrastructure through code and template files?
Scripting with the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI)
Using the AWS Management Console
Infrastructure as code (IaC)
Programming with the AWS Software Development Kits (SDKs)
Infrastructure as code (IaC) is the practice of provisioning and managing computing infrastructure through machine-readable definition files, rather than using physical hardware configuration or interactive tools. This approach enables repeatable and predictable deployments, which can be versioned and automated. The AWS Management Console is a web-based interface for managing services, but it is primarily used for manual operations and does not inherently support version-controlled, repeatable provisioning in the same way as IaC. The AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) and AWS Software Development Kits (SDKs) allow for automation through scripting and programming, but they are imperative tools used to execute commands. They differ from IaC, which uses declarative templates to define the desired end state of the infrastructure.
