Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) tools are crucial to running automated processes; they take many of these other "X as code" files and both trigger and configure tasks based on their contents. However, CI tools are complex in themselves. If a team is responsible for configuring them manually or maintaining long-running CI servers, they are likely to encounter challenges as demands on their usage scale. Switching the configuration of CI/CD to code alongside other "X as code" efforts helps create consistent, reproducibl
