Explanation
Infrastructure as Code (IaC) relates to the service provisioning stage of development. IaC is the practice of managing and provisioning computing infrastructure (servers, networks, storage, load balancers) through machine-readable configuration files rather than manual processes or interactive configuration tools. Tools like Terraform, Ansible, and CloudFormation exemplify this. It automates the provisioning and configuration of infrastructure resources as part of the software delivery pipeline. Manual configuration (A) is what IaC replaces. Physical deployment (C) refers to installing hardware, which IaC abstracts away. Requirement collection (D) is an earlier planning stage. IaC's core value is automating the provisioning of infrastructure services consistently and repeatably.
