Stack Drift Detection

Stack Drift Detection is a method used in software deployment to monitor changes in infrastructure components, like cloud resources or configuration stacks. It compares the current state of these components to their original setup to identify any unintended modifications. If discrepancies are found, it indicates that the environment has "drifted" from its intended configuration. This helps teams ensure consistency, prevent issues caused by unnoticed changes, and maintain reliable, predictable infrastructure over time.
