Infrastructure Lifecycle Management: Build / Deploy / Manage

● Terraform allows you to use infrastructure as code to provision and manage any infrastructure across your organization.

● Packer standardizes image workflows across cloud providers, allowing teams to build, govern and manage any image for any cloud.

● Waypoint makes infrastructure easily accessible at scale, enabling platform teams to deliver golden patterns and workflows with an internal developer platform.

● Nomad brings modern application scheduling to any type of software, allowing you to manage containers, binaries and VMs efficiently in the cloud, on-premises and across edge environments.

Security Lifecycle Management: Protect / Inspect / Connect

● Vault provides organizations with identity-based security to automatically authenticate and authorize access to secrets and other sensitive data.

● Boundary standardizes secure remote access across dynamic environments, allowing organizations to connect users and manage access with identity-based security controls.

● Consul standardizes service networking, allowing you to discover and securely connect any service across any runtime with identity-based service networking.

We deliver the Infrastructure Cloud through an enterprise-grade unified SaaS platform, HCP, as well as to enterprises through self-managed/on-premises options.
