IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service): Standardized compute, storage, and networking resources provisioned on-demand.
PaaS (Platform as a Service): Pre-configured platforms with layered software dependencies for application readiness.
SaaS (Software as a Service): Automated deployments of applications and their components.
Approach
Elyxor uses a structured approach to introduce IaC, including:
Establishing automation processes for provisioning and configuration.
Building CI/CD pipelines to manage infrastructure changes.
Integrating compliance checks to ensure system reliability and security.
Developing self-service portals for provisioning and deployments.
