As infrastructures and workloads transition to cloud and teams adopt a CI/CD development process, there is a new paradigm shift: infrastructure is becoming code. This approach of treating infrastructure as code (IaC) is incredibly powerful, brings us many advantages, and enables transformative concepts like immutability.

This trend change also puts more responsibility in the developers’ hands, as the person who controls the Kubernetes and git controls the infrastructure, application, and policy.

And, since the world is going to the cloud, we like to define Kubernetes as the operating system of the cloud.

Shifting security to the early stages of the development pipeline is a mandatory and widely accepted practice today, and we need to aggressively expand it to IaC.
