Advantages

Declarative: You only need to intuitively describe the final state of required resources, freeing you from the complex request process and simplifying resource management.

Idempotent: The idempotent effect of invoking the resource description code for multiple times ensures that resources are not repeatedly applied for.

Secure and reliable: Visualized audit, security, and compliance control policies prevent security risks caused by resource changes.

Rich ecosystem: The southbound ecosystem supports mainstream Cloud services (90+ cloud services, 540+ resource objects). For details, see Provider. The northbound ecosystem is fully compatible with the HCL syntax, eliminating a learning curve.

Easy to use: Wizard-based operations, comprehensive documentation, and sample auxiliary system help you to manage resources in five steps.

Full hosting and cloud-based services: You do not need to install any software, prepare executors, or manage underlying files and data.

Automatic rollback: If deployment fails for resources, RFS automatically returns the status of all resources to that of the previous successful deployment.
