The Problem
- Developers wait days or weeks for infrastructure provisioning tickets
- Platform teams drowning in repetitive requests for databases, environments, and access
- Manual deployments causing errors, downtime, and inconsistent environments
- Each team building custom CI/CD pipelines creating snowflake configurations
- Lost productivity as engineers spend 40% of time on infrastructure toil instead of features
Our Solution
Internal Developer Platform (IDP)
Self-service portal for developers to provision infrastructure without tickets
CI/CD Pipeline Automation
Standardized, reusable pipelines for build, test, and deployment workflows
Infrastructure as Code
Automated provisioning using Terraform, Ansible, and GitOps workflows
Service Catalogs
Pre-approved templates for common infrastructure patterns (databases, apps, services)
Policy-as-Code Guardrails
Automated compliance checks ensuring security and cost controls
Observability Integration
Automatic monitoring, logging, and alerting for all provisioned resources
