IaC Drift Management: Unexpected Infrastructure Discrepancies and
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is essential for managing complex IT environments, but discrepancies known as 'drift' can occur. IaC drift management involves detecting and correcting these deviations to maintain consistency between the defined code and actual infrastructure. Understanding the causes and risks of drift is crucial for effective management strategies.
- ▪IaC allows infrastructure to be defined and managed through version-controlled code files.
- ▪Drift occurs when infrastructure is modified outside of the IaC code, leading to inconsistencies.
- ▪Common causes of drift include manual configuration changes, emergency fixes, and human error.
