It connects to and orchestrates infrastructure as code (IaC), version control systems (VCSs), observability tools, control and governance solutions, and cloud providers to help deliver secure infrastructure faster. With Spacelift Intelligence, teams can also understand, design, deploy, and govern infrastructure using natural language, giving developers a fast, governed path to infrastructure without adding to the platform team's backlog. Infrastructure provisioning: Stacks ensure faster, more secure provisioning by automatically combining source code, current infrastructure state, and configuration. The platform works with any major IaC tool or cloud platform and the VCS provider where your teams store infrastructure code. Configuration automation: Expand your capabilities beyond Terraform and OpenTofu with a workflow that also manages Ansible playbooks. Governance to balance speed and control: Reinforce security and compliance with controls over developer/DevOps activity. Provide Golden Paths and define custom policies for third-party security vulnerability scanning tools, while accelerating policy creation with best-practice templates. Detect drift automatically, and restore resources to their expected state with drift remediation. Integrated workflow: Easily create workflows that combine IaC for provisioning, Ansible for configuration management, Kubernetes for container orchestration, and policies for governance. Blueprint templates allow you to open your infrastructure pipelines to developers without losing control. Infra Assistant: Your AI infrastructure assistant that can understand, design, deploy, and govern infrastructure in plain language. Ask questions about your infrastructure state that dashboards and reports can't answer. Get expert design guidance before you deploy, create and apply policies with AI assistance and diagnose failures faster with AI-generated context across your stacks, dependencies, and history. Intent: A no-code, AI-based deployment model for maximum speed. Developers request infrastructure through their LLM via Spacelift MCP. Intent translates those requests into governed infrastructure actions with the same policies, credentials, and visibility as IaC, without requiring Terraform expertise.
