- nzoschke 11y agoThanks, I updated my profile with contact info. Terraform is awesome if you want an OSS project to manage multiple cloud vendors. But I think that infrastructure change management is a really hard problem and the state of the art solution is how AWS runs CloudFormation as a managed service. Once it's set up properly, it's amazing watching what CloudFormation can do. It can execute updating 20 instances to roll out a new AMI, and then roll the whole operation back on demand or if a failure happens. All with no application downtime in the cluster!
