Question 287

Which of the following are advantages of using infrastructure as code (IaC) instead of provisioning with a graphical user interface (GUI)? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: B, D

    Using infrastructure as code (IaC) allows you to define and manage infrastructure configuration in a versionable, reusable, and shareable manner, which greatly improves collaboration and consistency in deployment processes. Additionally, IaC reduces the risk of operator error compared to using a graphical user interface (GUI), as it provides a repeatable and automated process, minimizing human errors that might occur during manual configurations.

(D) yes but (B) is a bad additional answer. Hope this one has been deprecated from the actual exam by now but BD seems to be the least worst answer

B. Infrastructure as Code (IaC) allows you to define and manage your infrastructure using code, which can be versioned, reused, and shared. This brings benefits such as easier collaboration, tracking changes over time, and ensuring consistency in your infrastructure. D. Using IaC reduces the risk of operator error compared to provisioning through a graphical user interface (GUI). With IaC, you have a repeatable and automated process, which minimizes the chances of human errors that might occur when manually configuring resources through a GUI.

B-D Option A is incorrect because IaC does not secure your credentials by default. You will need to use additional security measures, such as encryption, to protect your credentials. Option C is incorrect because the cost of provisioning resources is typically determined by the cloud provider, and not by the method used to provision the resources. Option E is incorrect because IaC does not prevent manual modifications to your resources. If a user has access to your IaC files, they can make changes to your infrastructure configuration.
