Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and Policy as Code (PaC) are two important trends in the field of IT operations. IaC is the practice of provisioning, configuring, and managing infrastructure using code, while PaC is the practice of managing policies using code. Both IaC and PaC have the potential to automate and simplify IT operations, but what is the connection between the two? This session will explore the relationship between IaC and PaC, and discuss how organizations can use these technologies together to improve efficiency, security and compliance. We will also discuss best practices for implementing IaC and PaC, and how to overcome common challenges.
