Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is a method of managing and provisioning computing infrastructure-such as servers, networks, databases, and other IT resources-using machine-readable configuration files rather than relying on manual processes or interactive configuration tools.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
The main components of IaC include tools and services. IaC tools are software platforms that automate infrastructure deployment and management, allowing organizations to manage servers, networks, and other resources through code. This reduces manual configuration efforts, automates tasks, and minimizes errors. IaC is classified into different types, such as declarative and imperative, and can be applied to various infrastructure configurations, including mutable and immutable infrastructure. IaC is used across various organization sizes, from large enterprises to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and is relevant to industries such as banking, financial services, insurance (BFSI), retail, government, manufacturing, IT and telecom, healthcare, and more.
The infrastructure as code market research report is one of a series of new reports from The Business Research Company that provides infrastructure as code market statistics, including the infrastructure as code industry global market size, regional shares, competitors with the infrastructure as code market share, detailed infrastructure as code market segments, market trends, and opportunities, and any further data you may need to thrive in the infrastructure as code industry. This infrastructure as code market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The infrastructure as code market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from$1.26 billion in 2024 to $1.60 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to several key factors, including the increasing adoption of cloud automation, growing demand for faster software development, rising demand for IoT-based solutions, the expansion of microservices architecture, and the widespread use of Kubernetes for container orchestration.
The infrastructure as code market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to$4.20 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27.2%. The growth projected in the forecast period can be attributed to factors such as the increasing complexity of IT infrastructure, the growing adoption of cloud services, rising demand for streamlining operations, the expanding use of cloud-native applications, and the broader adoption of cloud technologies. Key trends expected to shape the market include cloud adoption automation and orchestration, enhanced security automation requirements, cloud-native development, the rise of Containers as a Service (CaaS), and the ongoing digital transformation across industries.
The growing adoption of cloud computing is expected to drive significant growth in the infrastructure as code (IaC) market. Cloud computing delivers computing services over the internet, enabling businesses to access storage, software, and other resources without the need for physical hardware. Cloud computing is rapidly expanding due to its scalability, allowing businesses to adjust resources on demand, reduce operational costs, and support dynamic workloads efficiently. IaC plays a crucial role in cloud computing by automating the management and provisioning of cloud resources through code. This automation ensures consistency, reduces human error, and speeds up the deployment process. For instance, according to Eurostat, 42.5% of EU enterprises purchased cloud computing services in 2023, marking a 4.2 percentage point increase from 2021. As the adoption of cloud computing rises, the demand for IaC solutions continues to grow.
Key players in the infrastructure as code market are focusing on the development of API-driven cloud connectivity platforms to boost automation and optimize infrastructure management. These platforms enable secure and scalable integration between cloud services, applications, and networks. By automating workflows, streamlining data exchanges, and improving interoperability across hybrid and multi-cloud environments, API-driven platforms enhance operational efficiency. For example, in April 2024, InterCloud SAS, a France-based computer application company, launched InterCloud Autonomi, a self-service platform designed to automate cloud connectivity management through API integration. This platform enhances flexibility, reduces costs, and accelerates deployments, allowing businesses to seamlessly manage complex multi-cloud environments.
In February 2025, IBM acquired HashiCorp Inc. for $6.4 billion to enhance its hybrid cloud capabilities and infrastructure automation solutions. This acquisition enables IBM to integrate HashiCorp's IaC tools, such as Terraform and Vault, into its existing portfolio, further expanding its offerings in cloud automation and security. HashiCorp's tools are integral to managing cloud infrastructure efficiently, and their integration with IBM's hybrid cloud solutions strengthens IBM's position in the rapidly evolving infrastructure automation market.
