## Infrastructure as Code IaC

Prospero recommends the use of IaC during resource development:

- Deploy to multiple or new environments / subscriptions with ease
  - Dev, Test, Prod
  - Ephemeral environments (short-lived)
  - Build and destoy non-production environments on schedules. Reducing cost.
- Increased efficiency through automation
- Consistency and error reduction
- Approvals
- Version control
  - Branches
  - Tags
  - Pull Requests
  - Pipelines
- Ability to recreate
- Supports modularity
