In this webinar, we will delve into how Infrastructure as Code (IaC) underpins successful platform engineering by streamlining deployments and ensuring consistency across all environments—from development to production. We will discuss the balance between automation and manual oversight, necessary for maintaining system integrity and adaptability. We will also discuss how adopting IaC within platform engineering frameworks leads to more resilient and adaptable platforms, facilitates faster development and testing cycles, and ensures consistency across environments, which is crucial for the effective implementation of DevOps practices. The session also covers how IaC fits into broader DevOps practices, improving collaboration across teams and speeding up the development cycle, thereby driving overall productivity.

During this webinar, experts in DevOps and platform engineering will share their insights and experiences with IaC, drawing from real-world applications and research gathered from Techstrong’s community of cloud, DevOps, and infrastructure professionals.

What you will learn:

  • Fundamentals of Infrastructure as Code: Understand what IaC is and how it can transform your IT operations.
  • Implementing IaC: Practical strategies for integrating IaC into your platform engineering processes.
  • Balancing Automation and Oversight: How to maintain control over automated processes to ensure security and compliance.
  • Measuring Success and Efficiency: Methods to assess the effectiveness and impact of IaC on your organization.

Join us for an engaging discussion on leveraging Infrastructure as Code to optimize and secure IT infrastructure within your organization.
