# OpenTF vs. Alternatives
|
|
|
|
OpenTF provides a flexible abstraction of resources and providers. This model
|
|
allows for representing everything from physical hardware, virtual machines, and
|
|
containers, to email and DNS providers. Because of this flexibility, OpenTF
|
|
can be used to solve many different problems. This means there are a number of
|
|
existing tools that overlap with the capabilities of OpenTF. We compare OpenTF
|
|
to a number of these tools, but it should be noted that OpenTF is not mutually
|
|
exclusive with other systems. It can be used to manage a single application, or the
|
|
entire datacenter.
