Terraform and Ansible is not enough

Terraform and Ansible are powerful tools for infrastructure automation, but they fall short in handling complex, long-running workflows, state management, and fault tolerance. Modern DevOps tooling often struggles with scalability, error recovery, and dynamic orchestration across distributed systems. A workflow engine addresses these gaps by providing robust orchestration, retries, checkpointing, and multi-tool integration, making it a prerequisite for scaling operations in dynamic, cloud-native environments.
