# Rethinking endpoint management: Fleet, osquery and Infrastructure as Code
Traditional MDM and EDR tools demand blind trust. It’s time to adopt an engineering approach to device management that prioritizes visibility, auditability, and scale

The combination of the ground truth from `osquery`, Fleet’s scalable orchestration, and the rigor of Infrastructure as Code provides something traditional vendors cannot: complete control over your environment. Fleet transforms device management from manual labor in the GUI into proactive infrastructure engineering with all the benefits that GitOps entails: your teams can see every change, undo any error, and repeat every success.
But, there is a catch: moving to code-based management requires new skills. How do you enable a standard IT admin to write `SQL` queries and `YAML` configurations without needing the expertise of a seasoned DevOps engineer?
