Was ist IaC?
Infrastructure as code (IaC) is the process of managing and provisioning computer data center resources through machine-readable definition files, rather than via physical hardware configuration or interactive configuration tools. That is, instead of having to build a configuration manually, there is a pre-set configuration that can be applied to a machine. The IT infrastructure managed by this process includes physical equipment, such as bare-metal servers, and virtual machines and associated configuration resources. The definitions may exist in a version control system rather than manual processes. Definition files may use either scripts or declarative definitions, but IaC more often employs declarative approaches.
