How would you best describe your organization's current level of maturity with respect to infrastructure as code (IaC)?
(Required)
Initial (basic or trial implementations; or just starting with IaC)
Developing (IaC implementations in place)
Intermediate (significant use of IaC)
Advanced (adoption, or planned adoption, of IaC for most or all environments)
Full (IaC a core part of development, deployment, and operations)
Don’t know
How do you typically audit or discover existing infrastructure?
(Required)
Use of existing IaC state files
Automated scanning tools
Combination of manual review and automated tools
Manual review of consoles
No consistent auditing or discovery method
Other
What are the biggest challenges you face in ensuring compliance and governance for your IaC-based deployments? (Select up to three)
(Required)
Lack of policy enforcement automation
Lack of standardized policies
Inconsistent application of policies across environments
Difficulty enforcing policies
Amount of time required for audits
Infrastructure configuration drift
Insufficient training or expertise
Difficulty keeping up with compliance standards
Lack of visibility into the infrastructure
How helpful would it be to your organization to be able to automatically generate infrastructure as code (e.g., from existing resources, from application code, or based on architectural designs)?
(Required)
Extremely helpful
Very helpful
Moderately helpful
Somewhat helpful
Not helpful
Now, think about cloud-to-cloud migration projects. What are the biggest challenges your team faces with cloud-to-cloud migrations? (Select up to three)
(Required)
Ensuring security or compliance during migration
Configuration mapping is too complex
Too many manual error corrections needed
Inconsistencies from environment to environment
Translating infrastructure-as-code from environment to environment
Unclear or missing resource-policy mapping
Lack of infrastructure-as-code expertise
Don’t know
Need for extensive scripting
Projects require too much time and cost
Need for manual resource discovery
Which of the following would most help streamline your cloud-to-cloud migrations? (Select up to three)
(Required)
Don’t know
Standardization of infrastructure-as-code deployments
Support for manually created resources
Consistent governance and compliance standards
Clear architectural visualizations
Translation of existing infrastructure as code to destination environments
Elimination of repetitive manual tasks
Automated resource-policy mapping
Automated generation of infrastructure as code
Translation of policies and security protocols
Which of the following best describes how cloud-to-cloud migrations impact your team’s productivity?
(Required)
They reduce our productivity significantly while we perform them
Don’t know
They have no effect on our productivity or automation
They create process bottlenecks we must work around, at least temporarily
They increase the amount of automation we need
We haven’t done any cloud-to-cloud migrations
