What is Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and how does it support CI/CD?

This tests if you link declarative definitions to repeatable pipelines. A strong answer covers idempotence, versioned templates, and preventing snowflake environments. A red flag is calling IaC mere scripting without CI/CD integration.
This question tests how declarative infrastructure definitions integrate with continuous delivery to eliminate environment drift. A strong answer covers four elements in order: defining infrastructure as versioned code, enforcing idempotence so deployments produce identical environments, replacing manual configuration to prevent snowflakes, and embedding IaC validation into CI/CD pipelines for rapid, reliable provisioning.
