Infrastructure as Code (IaC) revolutionizes cloud infrastructure management, offering scalability, consistency, and version control through automated code-based deployments. Terraform, an open-source tool, enables developers to define infrastructure using configuration files, ensuring quick, repeatable, and auditable deployments. By integrating Terraform with AWS Systems Manager, you can not only deploy EC2 instances but also automate the installation of security agents, streamlining security compliance and DevSecOps processes.
