Use cases

Standardize and manage app deployment and delivery in the cloud

Abstract infrastructure complexity

Platform teams define how infrastructure and middleware should be provisioned using infrastructure as code with HashiCorp Terraform by defining No-code modules. This gives total flexibility in how the platform operates and how resources are configured. These modules get exposed to developers either as application templates or declarative dependencies which hide the details from developers, allowing them to focus on what they care about.
