Modern Solution Delivery: IT as Code
summary
Claims that IT must be cloud-first and codified into repeatable blueprints, noting 80% of traditional workloads remain on‑premise and require refactoring. Shows a stack using ARM templates (Azure) for infra, Ansible in‑browser for configuration (with 700+ modules), and optional Terraform, all chained via APIs to tools like ServiceNow or Slack. Presents a built product—PlayBook Cloud—that runs playbooks in serverless ephemeral containers, exposes an API, visualizes blueprints, and offers one‑month access for testing.
