reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1085452 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Infrastructure as code (IaC) is a set of practices that use code (rather than manual commands) for setting up (virtual) machines and networks, installing packages, and configuring the environment for the application of interest [3]. The infrastructure managed by this code includes both physical equipment (bare metal) and virtual machines, containers, and software-defined networks. This code should be developed and managed using the same processes as any other software. This report concludes work on Research Project 6-18 518 Feasibility of Infrastructure as Code, summarizing the problem addressed by the research, the research solution approach, and results.
