Summary

Harness has launched a new module called "Infrastructure as Code Management" (IaCM), currently in its Beta phase, to address challenges associated with using infrastructure as code (IaC) solutions like Terraform, particularly at scale. This module aims to streamline infrastructure changes through advanced pipelines that integrate with tools such as Checkov and tfsec, provide resource visibility, and offer cost estimation capabilities. The module also includes features like an approval step for reviewing changes, PR automation for integrating changes into the git workflow, and OPA rules for policy compliance. Additionally, it offers managed state management to ease the burden of state file handling. Existing Harness customers benefit from the ease of integrating IaCM with their current setup, leveraging existing components like pipelines and connectors. Harness plans to expand support to other IaC solutions and is committed to supporting open-source versions of Terraform and OpenTofu.
