- CAPS (Chef, Ansible, Puppet, Salt) are mainly for centrally controlling what lives inside a large number of instances. I.e. processes, files, etc. • Terraform and CloudFormation are mainly for creating instances themselves (and other cloud resources like load balancers etc). • I say "mainly" because both bleed a little into the other domain. E.g. CAPS often have capabilities to create instances etc, although not with as much power as terraform / CF. Likewise, one can use Terraform & CF to control the insides of instances at least at startup (via init scripts) and on GCE if you set up a metadata hook you can do it ongoingly as well. I read also other things but more or less the summary is this , use the CAPS tool to do what they were created for (configuration management) and the same for Terraform/Cloudformation create infrastructure. There is only one case where I choose a CAPS tool to build infrastructure and it is when I need a simple infrastructure with virtual machines and I need also to configure these machines. In this case I have the benefit to use 1 tool instead of 2 so I reduce complexity
