What is StackForms?

Take this typical use case: a developer wants to configure a new environment, but choosing variables and knowing permissions requires specialist knowledge – and often the help of your DevOps team. This slows down deployment and draws your team’s focus away from what’s important.

 

StackForms is a self-service portal that acts as the glue between your workloads, ensuring your services work end-to-end. Here’s an example: Cycloid deploys your compute and storage workloads where the end-user selects a landing zone, either through Cycloid asset inventory or using your cloud provider API. Additionally, it provides cost estimation, giving users visibility into the financial impact of their infrastructure choices. Infrastructure made easy and cost-effective!

Select a Stack

Select a service bundle or “Stack” from a list of pre-configured environments managed by your DevOps team.

Configure environment

Choose pre-defined environment variables and other specific scenarios from a simple drop-down menu – no specialist knowledge needed.

Review and run

Check your selection and voila! Your project is ready to run.
