Why Immutable Infrastructure Is the Future of Reliable Deployments

Immutable Infrastructure treats every server or container as a read‑only unit that is replaced rather than modified, offering repeatable configuration, faster CI/CD, easier rollback, and reduced operational complexity, while requiring stateless applications and automated provisioning templates to succeed.
