Terraform vs. Kubernetes : Key Differences and Comparison

This article compares two popular cloud infrastructure tools, Terraform and Kubernetes. Terraform is focused on infrastructure provisioning and operates in the Infrastructure as Code space, while Kubernetes focuses on running container workloads and operates in the container orchestration space. Both tools are open-source, highly extensible, and designed to be cloud agnostic. They complement each other by operating at different levels and can be utilized in parallel for managing infrastructure resources and application components. Spacelift supports both Terraform and Kubernetes, allowing users to create stacks based on them and integrate CI/CD pipelines for seamless management of their lifecycle.
