How many of you work in a place where infrastructure as code is being practiced, e.g. they are deployed with a CM tool/orchestrator and version control in a VCS like git) and is integrated with a CI/CD tools (e.g Jenkins)

For those who work in a (public) cloud environment, infrastructure as code is a common practiced (as it may be built that way to begin with) whereas traditional enterprises are not.  Currently I find myself trying to incorporate more IaC in my work environment but there are challenges in a non-cloud environment.  I think it is just easier to build a new cloud (public or private) environment than to migrate it.
