About driftctl
driftctl measures infrastucture as code coverage, and tracks cloud configuration drift.
Why ?
Infrastructure as code is awesome, but there are too many moving parts: codebase, state file, actual cloud configuration. Things tend to drift.
Drift can have multiple causes: from developers creating or updating infrastructure through the web console without telling anyone, to uncontrolled updates on the cloud provider side. Handling infrastructure drift vs the codebase can be challenging.
You can't efficiently improve what you don't track. We track coverage for unit tests, why not infrastructure as code coverage?
driftctl tracks how well your IaC codebase covers your cloud configuration. driftctl warns you about drift.
What does it do?
- Scan cloud provider and map ressources with IaC code
- Output coverage in standard format
- Integrate into CI flow to expose coverage to everyone
- Allow users to ignore resources
- Analyze diff between consecutive runs, and warn about drift and unwanted unmanaged ressources
