Don't Stop at the Cloud - Connecting all the Dots with Infrastructure-as-Code

This 23-minute conference talk explores how Infrastructure-as-Code (IAC) capabilities extend far beyond cloud infrastructure management. Discover how to leverage OpenTofu to create comprehensive development environments that include GitHub repositories, GCP projects with appropriate environments, and properly configured IAM permissions and security controls. Learn through practical examples how a single "apply" command can set up an entire infrastructure ecosystem that maintains security while enhancing developer productivity. The presentation demonstrates how to automate the creation of development and production environments with appropriate approval workflows, allowing developers to focus on application logic rather than infrastructure configuration. Gain insights into implementing IAC flexibility to accelerate development processes, with access to open-source examples and tools that can be immediately applied to your projects.
