If IBM decides to merge Terraform and Ansible, would that be Terrible?

@geerlingguy@mastodon.social It should be! But it will probably be Ansiform 🙄 @geerlingguy To be fair Hasicorp has already done enough to tarnish themselves. I'm sure IBM can 1+ that *easily*! @geerlingguy It maybe not popular opinion, but it have sense to spin-up infra and configure VMs from the same codebase @geerlingguy Seen this in reality already. Ansible templates generating terraform code .. Terrible is a sound description @Comradin @geerlingguy You get that with a language not supporting any control structures. I generate provider definitions. But at least you can have Terraform code in JSON form. @geerlingguy remember when adobe acquired macromedia, and merged illustrator and freehand into @geerlingguy good one. Seriously though, IBM owning both Ansible and Terraform seems like a problem. I’ve contacted my local competition authority, will you consider contacting yours? |
