About The Alternatives - Chef, Ansible, Puppet

Ansible does decent job on AWS for cloud provisioning, but has been slow to get parity with AWS updates/feaptures, such as EKS, that was half year too late, where Terraform was there day zero. Pull based change configs like Chef and Puppet are not suitable for orchestration and cloud provisioning. It can be done, but the journey will be painful and solution will be unecessarily complex.
