Terraform is dead
The more I look at how we actually build systems now, the more it looks like Terraform is dead.
Not “declining.” Not “evolving.” Dead. What’s left is just inertia.
What Terraform Actually Solved
Terraform solved a very specific problem: how do we make infrastructure deterministic, reviewable, and repeatable?
The answer was a DSL, a plan step, and a state file. It worked, and it still works.
But it also forced an awkward compromise. Humans ended up describing intent in a language that was never designed to express it, and HCL is not how anyone actually thinks about systems.

pgBackRest is dead. Now what? | My DBA Notebook
I have been recommending pgBackRest as the best backup tool for PostgreSQL for years. I even wrote a blog post about it. My students at Université Lyon I were able to backup, restore, and perform PITR in four hours with zero prior knowledge of the tool. That is how good it was.
I say “was” because David Steele, the sole maintainer of pgBackRest, has announced on the project’s GitHub page that he is stopping all work on the project.
