The smart choice for helping your engineering team build better software faster.
In the day-to-day grind of software development, developers are often caught between a rock and a hard place: the rock being the complexity required to create and operate the infrastructure that powers their code and the hard place being insufficient abstraction from that complexity. This dilemma creates a cycle of dependency where developers must constantly submit tickets for even the smallest of tasks related to creating something new or executing common “day 2” operations.
TicketOps not only squanders your Ops team’s time with a relentless stream of mundane, repetitive requests but also ensnares developers in lengthy wait times while their tickets are processed, which disrupts developers’ concentration and blocks their velocity. This logjam prolongs feature delivery timelines and depresses morale. Worse, without a library of templates that predefine the right way to execute a common operation, organizations face elevated risks of deployment mishaps, inconsistent patterns, and security issues.
Self-Serve Actions by configure8 enables your developers to easily discover and use pre-defined actions. Our no-code UI abstracts away the complexity of discovering and using pre-defined actions while leveraging your existing tool chain and approval, validation, and execution processes.
30% faster time to market
Increased consistency
0 minute wait times for infrastructure changes
Dramatic reductions in ticket volume and increased adoption of reusable templates
Eliminates significant maintenance overhead
Stop struggling with inconsistent, outdated or hard-to-measure standards. Use Scorecards by configure8 to define, measure, and improve compliance with reliability, security, and architecture standards, all with unrivaled ease and flexibility. Your team can even programmatically prevent CI/CD deployments when the service is not meeting internal standards.
Nearly 60% faster completion of org-wide initiatives
Increases in compliance with security, architecture, and reliability standards
Improvements in developer satisfaction thanks to clear guidance about the next best action to improve a service, why this action matters, and how to accomplish it
Lower TCO for an enterprise-grade solution
With configure8’s Universal Catalog, your team can quickly and easily build a living sociotechnical knowledge map of your team and software – your applications, their services, data pipelines and ML jobs, environments, and cloud resources – and key information about each item, all in one place.
Reduces incident MTTR
Accelerates new developer onboarding and training
Creates stable knowledge artifact ahead of employee churn
Lays a powerful foundation for analytics and insights
Alleviates on-call stress
Helpful guidance on next best action to improve compliance
Faster time to first productive commit
Reduced cognitive load from everything in one place
Minimal set-up and maintenance overhead
Reduces TCO of your IDP
Reduced cognitive load (versus navigating cloud consoles and tools)
Don’t let your cloud costs spiral because your engineers lack optics into the costs of running the code they own.
With configure8, you can enable your engineers to see the cloud computing costs associated with the code they own, drill into cost drivers, and understand resource configuration settings, linkages, and dependent environments and services. Then, they can use configure8’s Self-Serve Actions to instantly implement cost-saving changes, all while leveraging consistent patterns and guardrails you define.
configure8 also strengthens your team’s partnership with finance. Enable FinOps to align costs with your system’s architecture. In an upcoming version, configure8 will also enable you to link your cloud costs to business metrics, like cost per customer, unit, query or endpoint, and track this over time. Now, engineering and finance can understand cloud cost changes tied to growth versus changes in efficiency.
Improvements in cloud computing efficiency
Optics into the costs they control
Empowered to improve cost efficiency within defined guardrails
Reduced ticket volume and greater consistency as developers self-service improvements in cloud efficiency
Unmatched breadth and depth of information enables you to solve more problems fast
Examples:
Enable developers to execute day 2 operations without hunting for resource settings
Show developers the cost and cost drivers of the services they own
Create security scorecards that automap resource-level vulnerabilities to impacted service owners
Automatically update developers’ access to Actions and Catalog Items when they change teams
Ingest data from any source, schematize it, relate it to other items, transform it with custom calculations, and present it using customizable widgets, tabs, and tables
Create dashboards and metrics to suit your stakeholders' needs via custom charts and tables as well as custom calculations
Customize the look and feel of configure8 to match your enterprise’s brand identity
All the enterprise features (RBAC, SCIM/SSO, Self-Hosted or SaaS, robust APIs, etc.)
