IaC Tools

This document discusses and compares several popular infrastructure as code tools: Terraform, CloudFormation, Ansible, Puppet, Pulumi, and Docker. Terraform is an open-source tool that offers reusable modules and stores infrastructure state in files and S3. CloudFormation keeps infrastructure configuration in YAML/JSON files and uses nested stacks. Ansible is a configuration management tool that uses YAML syntax to automate infrastructure provisioning. Puppet is an enterprise configuration management tool that defines infrastructure via code. Pulumi is a multi-cloud development platform that uses general-purpose languages. Docker is a containerization tool that enables portable app deployment.

Infrastructure

as code tools
Choosing the right cloud infrastructure

automation tool for your organization is the key to

embracing the IaC revolution and increasing

operational efficiencies.
Terraform

An open-source tool for infrastructure as code orchestration, which

offers modules that can be reused and stored in Git or Terraform

Module Registry, allowing seamless collaboration across teams. The

infrastructure state is written to a file and stored in S3, meaning

that you can play around with resources without tearing down the

infrastructure.
CloudFormation

Cloud infrastructure automation tool, with YAML or JSON keeping

you from worrying about storing the infrastructure configuration.

Nested Stacks allows easy management of complex stacks by

encapsulating functional logic and databases, so you don’t have to

compare and check old and new templates before making any

change.
Ansible

A configuration management tool that lets you automate the

provisioning of infrastructure. Uses Python-based YAML syntax,

procedural style language to manage the infrastructure wherein

step-by-step procedures for the desired state are coded. The

agentless master architecture makes it simple to install and use.


Puppet

Enterprise-ready configuration management tool that enables

administrators to define the desired state of the infrastructure via

code. It is highly intuitive and allows users to seamlessly monitor

and manage the entire infrastructure from a central pane in

real-time. It offers customizable reporting tools.


Pulumi

Multi-language and multi-cloud development platform, allowing

you to create and deploy infrastructure as code to every type of

cloud environment; you can use general-purpose languages such

as JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python. It uses a cloud-objective

model delivering a unified programming model.


Docker

Containerization tool which enables developers to create applica-

tions with all libraries and deploy them in any environment. Docker

brings mobility solutions, enabling you to run apps everywhere.

With isolated app environments, maintenance is reduced.
