When most organizations think about efficient cloud environment, they are often thinking about cost efficiency, security and Infrastructure as code maintenance – the lower the cost for a functioning, secured, IaC managed cloud setup, the better. However, there is one thing that’s often overlooked by many, particularly by those outside of the DevOps team that maintains the cloud environment ...

The new HashiCorp Terraform Cloud run tasks feature was announced earlier this year and is now available for integration with Lightlytics continuous simulation platform.

Don’t assume an outage will never affect your region. A region outage can completely knock out your services and critically affect your business application’s availability for a certain period--especially if your application is built around a single-region architecture.

There are a variety of techniques to deploy new applications to production, so choosing the right strategy is an essential decision. This is especially true when considering the techniques in terms of the impact changes may have on the system and on end users. And What About Configuration Changes?

We have built a platform that enables DevOps to Automatically predict, pre-empt and prevent downtime, data loss, deployment delays and other critical business disruption caused by infrastructure changes by simulating all possible dependencies and their impact on operations before deployment, we can proactively ensure that production continues as planned, so you can create assurance in your infrastructure.

In today's world, wherever nearly every business is an internet business that dependents on code, downtime has a direct impact on the business we all care about.

IaC minimizes the need for dedicated server admins on a larger scale too. Instead of having multiple admins to handle specific parts of a cloud environment, everything can be managed — in an entirely automated way — by one engineer. VMs and cloud instances can be created and maintained simply with several lines of code. In addition, IaC directly helps reduce costs through automation, and it helps reduce risks by lowering the chances of errors, and enables greater speed by reducing the deployment times.
