    In addition to creating Kubernetes clusters, there is also an increasing number of opportunities to use various Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) tools, such as Terraform, with GitOps. As was already mentioned, PipeCD offers support for Terraform. Terraform's vendor, HashiCorp, now also offers an official Terraform Kubernetes operator. However, it needs access to HashiCorp's Terraform Cloud. Alternatively, there are also third-party operators that can function without Terraform Cloud, such as the one developed by Rancher. However, it is still in alpha stage.
