- Our software helps you automate the configuration and ongoing management of your machines and the software running on them, so you spend less time fighting fires and more time deploying great software. We help you make rapid, repeatable changes and automatically enforce the consistency of systems and devices–across physical and virtual machines, on prem or in the cloud.
- First, we think it’s critical to adopt automation technology that helps you model and enforce the desired state of the services you deliver. Second, we think that you should automate those processes (among others) from your core infrastructure up through your applications, all in one place for full enforcement, traceability and auditability. Third, we think you should automate across the entire lifecycle, from initial provisioning of infrastructure through decommissioning. Finally, you should do this across everything. If it has an IP address, you should automate the management of it. Let’s dig into each of these.
