I fundamentally disagree. The source of truth should be naively updating my components, not a script that may or may not break with the next update which has 0 support available.

Given the repeated asks on the GitHub issues, I’m confident I’m not alone in that belief.

Infoblox doesn’t tell me to write a terraform script to update AD/dns and vice versa, they built it into the product.

Netbox isn't really a DHCP/DNS server and doesn't claim to be. You don't have to use its IPAM features if you want to use Infoblox instead.

Netbox has a lot of great features for documenting your infrastructure even if you don't use IPAM - which Infoblox does not do at all.

I understand what it currently does. I’m saying they’re missing the mark and should finish building out the tool. I don’t want a separate tool for each.

Our current focus, with our current resources, is on core functionality. We want to nail that and then grow our roadmap deliberately, rather than go off and add a bunch of half-finished features just to tick some checkboxes. In the meantime, plugin builders are doing an amazing job tackling things like BGP community / session / policy management, DNS record management, and device ACL management.
