Introduction

Today I’d like to talk a little bit about infrastructure as code. Infrastructure as code is when you write code to manage your cloud infrastructure. Having your infrastructure set up as code does wonders for your development cycle. The one thing I like the most about it, is that when you make a setting change, you can commit it. No more looking back at the resource settings and trying to figure out the magic checkbox you clicked last week that made things work in QA so you can reproduce it in Production. You just point the code to the Production account and fire it off.
