Terraform shine when you combine multiple providers, kubectl manages Kube but Terraform helps you integrate K8s with the rest of your infrastructure (monitoring, Sentry,GitHub and GitLab, etc.) > I find managing Terraform's state to be a significant hurdle Have a look at https://app.terraform.io/signup/account https://app.terraform.io/signup/account, it's the free version of Terraform Enterprise and it makes managing your state very easy. >If you were building a configuration mechanism for your system from scratch to allow your users to configure it as code, would you make .a Terraform provider over a command line tool that can apply [--prune] that same configuration? I would make a Terraform provider, you get plans, modules, the possibility to integrate with other providers easily and creating a new Terraform provider is actually very easy!
