Join us for our upcoming program where we will discuss the results of the 2023 State of Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) Report from Firefly. The report provides valuable insights on how organizations are managing their cloud infrastructure using IaC. The findings highlight the importance of IaC in today's cloud strategy, as well as the challenges organizations face in implementing IaC effectively. With cloud complexity growing and the rise of cloud-native applications, the need for efficient and reliable IaC management is crucial.

During the program, we will delve into the key highlights of the report, including the reasons organizations use IaC, common challenges and best practices for managing cloud infrastructure. We will also cover the growing multi-cloud management trend and the tools used to manage it. Additionally, we will discuss the role of IaC in DevOps and the benefits it provides for cloud resource provisioning, consistency, reliability and reduced risk.

The program is perfect for DevOps, SREs and platform engineers who want to assess their IaC use relative to their peers and gain a better understanding of IaC best practices. Register now to learn about the current state of IaC and get our top recommendations for a well-managed cloud.
