I stopped arguing about which is better CF or TF. Some people go crazy every time this topic is discussed.
Me, I just hate all this IAC thing. I spend weeks sometimes to deliver a script that deploys an rds database with blah blah blah. Yeah it is nice to have all your infrastructure as code. It would be definitely useful if you are deploying the same structure again and again. or if you are running it frequently.
But if you are deploying a structure once only, do you really need this? Do you have to spend 2 weeks on a script you will re-run once in 6 months? (and then you will find that many objects need to be updated to re-run without errors) It seems a lot of over-engineering for me (I know I will be hated so much for this).
Sometimes when I run TF in production, I start praying that all goes well!
