Make infrastructure easily accessible at scale

Use HashiCorp Terraform to build infrastructure and define golden patterns for with reusable templates. Let developers consume these patterns in HCP Waypoint to create new applications quickly.

Developers understand the requirements of their application, such as dependencies like MySQL and Redis, but don’t care about the details of how they are provisioned. Developers can specify their application dependencies easily, and platform operators can define how these dependencies are provisioned using standardized templates.

Platform teams define golden workflows for actions such as building an application, deploying to production, performing a rollback, and other workflows. Developers can execute these workflows with a simple UX, while being abstracted from the details. When issues happen, workflows can be inspected to avoid a black box. HCP Waypoint integrates with your existing CI/CD systems, while providing a consistent abstraction layer.

Platform and operations teams need a catalog of applications, golden paths and workflows. Having a central catalog of the applications and associated metadata enables teams to quickly answer operational questions.
