Unmanaged Resources Discovery
Detect resources that are not being managed by Terraform. With the ControlMonkey dashboard you get a clear view of your Terraform coverage and suggested stacks to be imported to Terraform code.
AI-Powered Code Generation
ControlMonkey generates 100% validated Terraform code representing your existing cloud environments. Enjoy a human readable code with variables, dependencies, data sources, and more.
One-Click Terraform Import
Seamlessly shift existing resources to Terraform Code with ControlMonkey’s AI-Powered Terraform Import Engine. ‘Smart Stacking” technology creates suggested stacks of resources that are related to each other by your architecture and tags.
GitOps Management
When managing resources with Terraform and GitOps, you can leverage our out of the box solutions for Terraform CI/CD with proactive policies.
Enjoy Drift Detection for identifying deviations from desired resource state to keep your cloud where you want it to be.
Pre-built State File
Use a pre-built Terraform state file which is 100% validated.
Only ControlMonkey provides both the Terraform Code and the Terraform state file. No running ‘Terraform Import’ or ‘Import’ block manually–we do that for you.
Smart Stacking
Leverage our contextual algorithm to get ready-to-import stacks. Each suggested stack is composed of resources that are related to each other by your architecture and tags. Tailor stacks according to your preference and customization.
Move to Terraform without breaking what works or rebuilding from scratch.

Frequently Asked Questions
Migrating to Terraform means converting existing cloud infrastructure into Infrastructure as Code (IaC) so that it’s versioned, reproducible, and governed. Instead of managing resources manually or with ad hoc scripts, Terraform automation ensures that every change is consistent and auditable. For legacy environments, migration eliminates hidden risks, enables drift detection, and creates a foundation for IaC modernization.
Legacy infrastructure is often fragmented, poorly documented, and difficult to scale. IaC modernization through Terraform provides a single source of truth for all resources. This improves governance, reduces manual toil, and accelerates infrastructure delivery. For financial services, SaaS, and other regulated sectors, IaC modernization also ensures stronger compliance and auditability.
Yes. ControlMonkey automates the process of converting infrastructure to code with one-click Terraform imports and pre-built state files. Instead of rewriting thousands of resources by hand, teams can modernize at scale with minimal effort.
ControlMonkey goes beyond imports. Once your infrastructure is in Terraform, it enables full GitOps workflows, drift detection, daily backups, and policy enforcement. That means migration is not just a one-time task but the start of governed, resilient infrastructure management. Explore our IaC Automation Platform for the full feature set.
Yes. ControlMonkey supports teams that want to transition from Terraform to OpenTofu. Once your legacy infrastructure is imported into Terraform, the platform helps you generate compliant code and state files that can be used with OpenTofu. This makes it easier to modernize without rewriting, and ensures your Infrastructure as Code (IaC) workflows remain consistent—whether you run Terraform, OpenTofu, or both during the migration.
