> They are the de-facto standard in DevOps tooling
Im in cloud automation 8+ years. No they are not de-facto standard. For AWS projects, I much prefer Cloudformation. App devs use venv or similar, not Vagrant.
I’d use their CI/CD if they had one, like GitLab, but looks like they don’t?
I've used terraform in 50% of my jobs over recent years.
But even in the companies where I've used AWS and cloudformation we still use Hashicorp tooling. For example we use cloudformation at the current company to handle our AWS infrastructure, but the AMIs launched are generated with packer.
