An infrastructure as code platform that lets you build cloud infrastructure using real programming languages — TypeScript, Python, Go, C#, Java and YAML.

A CNCF Kubernetes add-on that lets platform teams assemble infrastructure from multiple vendors and expose higher-level, self-service APIs to application teams.

An infrastructure as code service that lets you model, provision and manage AWS and third-party resources with templates, speeding up cloud provisioning.

Simplifies how you manage Azure app resources: deploy resources together, categorize them for billing, and enable enterprise-grade access control.

Google's current managed IaC service, defining infrastructure with Terraform. It replaces Cloud Deployment Manager, which reached end of support on March 31, 2026.

The open-source fork of Terraform, governed by the Linux Foundation, that keeps the same HCL workflow and provider ecosystem under an open-source licence.

Defines AWS infrastructure in TypeScript, Python, Java, C# or Go and synthesizes it to CloudFormation.

A domain-specific language for deploying Azure resources, with cleaner syntax than raw ARM templates and day-one support for new Azure features.

A thin wrapper for Terraform and OpenTofu that keeps configurations DRY across environments and manages remote state; its site now lives at terragrunt.com.

An infrastructure orchestration platform for managing Terraform, OpenTofu, Ansible and other IaC workflows with policies and drift detection.

A platform for governing and automating IaC deployments; the former env0.com address now redirects to envzero.com.

An open source, agentless IT automation engine that drives provisioning, configuration management, application deployment and orchestration across hybrid clouds.

Configure, deploy and manage entire application infrastructure in a secure, compliant way, now developed under Progress Software following the Chef acquisition.

Now Perforce Puppet, a desired-state automation platform that makes infrastructure actionable, scalable and intelligent, with an added AI Infra Assistant.

SaltStack Config's capabilities now live under VMware Cloud Foundation Automation, delivering self-service private cloud for AI, Kubernetes and VM-based apps at scale.

Cloud automation service for automating long-running, error-prone, repeated tasks — PowerShell and Python runbooks, update management, and configuration across hybrid environments.

Workload automation and job scheduling platform — a 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for Service Orchestration and Automation Platforms, with no-code job steps and a low-code REST API adapter.

IT process orchestration that reduces costs and errors — event automation, closed-loop change and configuration, and service desk automation across enterprise systems.

Automates, integrates, and orchestrates any IT process across cloud or on-premises environments, connecting disparate tools into unified, repeatable workflows.

Manages the lifecycle of virtual machines using a declarative Vagrantfile describing software requirements, packages, OS configuration and users.
