Infrastructure as a code: An efficient way to manage IT Infrastructure
Infrastructure as a code (IaaC) is an increasingly popular approach to managing IT infrastructure. It enables the automation of configuration, deployment, and management of software, networks, storage, and other IT resources. Infrastructure as a code reference template is offered by MTSL mCOT and is based on best practices for the Google, Azure, and AWS clouds. These pre-made templates can be used to create a repeatable, customer-ready Cloud base quickly. As a result, you are free to concentrate on deploying your applications in this fundamentally secure environment. Additionally, you can quickly alter the foundation as your needs evolve, thanks to Infrastructure as code (IaC).
Key benefits of using Infrastructure as code:
Consider your Infrastructure like software.
You may automate repetitive procedures and uniformly provide entire environments using open-source templates. Also, your teams can work together on the Infrastructure by recommending source code modifications and engaging in code reviews.
Built for various Verticals
The mCOT was created primarily to satisfy businesses’ security and compliance requirements. However, you can be sure that best practices—including important security and governance controls—are applied right out of the gate by building a foundational environment using these templates.
Pre-built templates help you save both time and resources.
You can save time by using the mCOT instead of creating your own Cloud templates and patterns. Alternatively, you can construct using open-source templates and concentrate only on the adjustments particular to your business and workloads. Migrations take less time, and developers are able to work more quickly.
Choose an adoption strategy.
The mCOT templates can all be utilised separately. You may decide which patterns are appropriate for your business and add new ones as your surroundings change. The source templates are simple to fork and adapt to your company’s requirements.
Easy to maintain consistency
You can be sure that diverse teams are deploying their apps and environments using a standardised set of tools and patterns by implementing automation. This makes it simpler for teams to collaborate while lowering the possibility of configuration errors and inconsistencies.
Final thoughts…
In conclusion, mCOT streamlines and expedites the migration of IT infrastructure to the Cloud. It enhances efficiency and brings down costs and timelines with reduced errors. The service also provides pre-built templates based on the best practices for Cloud, which allows swift and consistent development of a secure infrastructure environment. By employing Infrastructure as code, you can avail advantages such as automating repetitive tasks, optimising time and resources and ensuring consistency across teams. It also enables employment of a flexible adoption strategy and tailor the templates to your business needs hassle-free.
