What are Pipelines as Code?
Pipelines as Code are programmatic ways of defining and executing software delivery. The build, test, and deployment of applications should be treated as code.
How Harness uses Pipelines as Code.
The Harness Platform is backed by configuration-as-code. All aspects of the Harness Platform can be saved as configuration-as-code so your pipelines are accessible as code. The Harness Platform supports a bi-directional Git Sync, so changes made in a Source Code Management [SCM] solution or vice versa in the Harness Platform are represented as code.

What is Infrastructure as Code?
Infrastructure as Code or IaC is the administration and management of infrastructure through code vs physical configurations. Examples of IaC are Chef, Puppet, Terraform, and CloudFormation.
How Infrastructure as Code relates to Harness.
Harness has the ability to interact and manage with several infrastructure-as-code providers. As part of a modern deployment, infrastructure is provisioned at deployment time. Harness can orchestrate popular infrastructure-as-code providers such as Terraform and CloudFormation.
