Packer

With Packer, you can deploy virtual machine images to multiple cloud or on-premises platforms without creating new versions for each target. This command-line tool automates the cloning process, taking a base image and reproducing it efficiently across environments such as Google Cloud, Docker, or VirtualBox. It saves time and resources by avoiding repetitive builds, ensuring that every deployment uses the same tested image. This consistency minimizes errors and accelerates your workflow, making it easier to manage scalable and hybrid infrastructure setups.
