Declarative infrastructure means specifying the desired end state and letting the tool figure out how to get there — Terraform, CloudFormation, and Kubernetes manifests are all declarative.
Teams keep telling themselves infrastructure is simple. 'It's just Terraform.' 'A contractor can clean it up.' Here's what those assumptions actually cost.
