Terraform best practices for reliability at any scale
Genuine question for DevOps people:<p>Other than the fact it seems to be an industry standard so it's good for your job prospects, what are the benefits to Terraform over CloudFormation/CDK or whatever the equivalent is for your particular cloud provider?<p>Most companies/people pick a provider and then stick with it and it doesn't seem like there's much portability between configurations if you do decide to switch providers later down the line so I'm not sure what the benefits are. I haven't delved into Terraform yet but I tried doing a project in Pulumi once and felt by the end of it that I might as well have just wrote it in AWS CDK directly.
