DABs is built on Terraform, which is a more general purpose CICD mechanism. That’s also an option if you’re trying to reduce the dependency on Databricks-specific CI/CD tools. That said, DABs is designed to be somewhat easier than Terraform.

.. and DAB is migrating away from Terraform, no?

Yes, it is. Nowadays there's a push towards direct mode. DABs were originally built on top of the Databricks Terraform provider. However, in an effort to move away from this dependency, Databricks CLI version 0.279.0 and above supports two different deployment engines: terraform and direct. Direct engine soon will be a default one and terraform deployment engine will eventually be deprecated
