What are the benefits of using Infrastructure as Code? (select five)

The correct answer is A. Infrastructure as Code is relatively simple to learn and write, regardless of a user's prior C. Infrastructure as Code is easily repeatable, allowing the user to reuse code to deploy D. Infrastructure as Code gives the user the ability to recreate an application's infrastructure F. Infrastructure as Code allows a user to turn a manual task into a simple, automated. Note: The question asks for five answers but only four are marked correct (A, C, D, F).

Explanation

Note: The question asks for five answers but only four are marked correct (A, C, D, F). Answer B - 'provides configuration consistency and standardization' - is also a genuine, widely-recognized benefit of IaC and is likely the intended fifth answer, suggesting an error in the answer key. (A) IaC tools like Terraform use declarative syntax that is approachable regardless of deep programming experience. (B) IaC enforces consistent, repeatable configuration across environments, eliminating manual drift - this IS a core benefit even though it appears missing from the key. (C) Code is reusable via modules and variables, so the same code can deploy dev/staging/prod. (D) The code itself serves as documentation and can recreate infrastructure on demand. (E) is false - IaC complements, not replaces, general-purpose languages. (F) IaC converts manual, error-prone provisioning into an automated, auditable process.
