Infrastructure as Code (IaC) in a Multi-Cloud Environment: Consistency and Security Issues

Relevance of the Study

Modern organizations are increasingly turning to cloud technologies to improve the flexibility, scalability, and efficiency of their IT infrastructure. One important tool in this process is Infrastructure as Code (IaC), which allows organizations to describe their infrastructure using code, automate the deployment process, reduce the risk of human error, and ensure consistency across different stages of the application lifecycle.

In addition, there is a trend towards multi-cloud architectures, where companies use multiple cloud providers to spread the load, improve fault tolerance, and comply with security and data localization regulations. This approach allows organizations to take advantage of the benefits of different cloud providers while minimizing the risks associated with a single provider.
