An organization uses an automated provisioning setup, but they have discovered differences from their declared setup. Which technique best helps them find these changes and keep their environment aligned with stored definitions?
Build a fresh environment for trials to validate functionality
Use an approach that toggles features on or off
Compare the active environment with the known configuration to detect mismatches
Conducting a comparison that checks actual resource states for mismatches ensures the environment remains in sync with the documented setup. By highlighting unexpected variations, the team can revert changes or update definitions. Periodic incremental updates do not provide insight into resources altered outside version control. Relying on feature toggles only manages which functionality is active and does not highlight differences. Building ephemeral test environments is valuable for testing but does not locate deviations in a persistent setup.
