What is Infrastructure Automation & How Does It Work?

Infrastructure automation is crucial for businesses as it reduces manual interactions with IT systems, making the process repeatable, less error-prone, highly available, and capable of easily building disaster recovery mechanisms. Automating infrastructure processes such as IaC, CM, container orchestration, CI/CD, monitoring, and security can lead to increased reliability, repeatability, cost-effectiveness, and scaling capabilities. However, challenges like choosing the right tools, lack of skills, cultural shift, and budgeting may arise during implementation. Spacelift is an infrastructure management platform that supports various IaC tools and offers features such as plan policies, approval policies, notification policies, push policies, stack dependencies, and more to enhance workflows for infrastructure automation.
