Just read your article while I'm researching how to know which version (as in git revision) of the infrastructure (as code) is currently deployed to a certain environment/stage.

If I understood your article correctly, you are arguing that you want to "snapshot"/"version control" the actual resources that have been allocated, right?

But wouldn't it already be a good start if there is a way to know which revision of your infrastructure as code, has successfully been deployed according to the tools you use? At least as long as you trust that they work as you understood it, this should be "very close" so potentially "close enough" to the reality, right?

Have you seen such an approach anywhere? Or have any good resource/idea about it?
