AutoCloud

AutoCloud is intended to give you immediate visibility into your public cloud operations, creating visualizations, monitoring changes and providing a GraphQL API for infrastructure as code (IaC) operations. It's designed to help you avoid Terraform problems like slow delivery, cost blowouts, security problems and scaling problems, and it's geared for developers and companies trying to get a better handle on their cloud infrastructure.

AutoCloud's four-step process is designed to convert Terraform problems into productivity:

1. Connect: Quickly integrate your cloud accounts with read-only access.
2. Fix Coverage Gaps: Find and create missing code, state or modules for unmanaged resources.
3. Create Blueprints: Convert Terraform modules into reusable blueprints that ensure secure and cost-effective deployment.
4. Deploy: Generate production-ready Terraform code so any engineer can provision cloud resources with best practices.

Among AutoCloud's features are:

• Reverse Terraform: Create secure, optimized Terraform code from existing infrastructure to codify ideal initial states.
• IaC Blueprints: Create reusable, customizable blueprints for easy deployment, with built-in policy-as-code controls for security, compliance and cost.
• Change Detection: Automatic change detection, including drift detection and integrated security and cost implications.

AutoCloud pricing tiers are based on the number of cloud assets you want to track:

• Free: $0/month, 1,000 assets, 1 user
• Small Team: $1,250/month, 15,000 assets, 6 users
• Professional: $5,400/month, 60,000 assets, 24 users
• Enterprise: Custom pricing, custom asset and user limits, enterprise-level support

AutoCloud can help companies get a better grip on Terraform and cloud operations, in particular in heavily regulated domains. It's designed to work for both technical and nontechnical people, with a centralized repository for best practice IaC patterns, the ability to codify existing cloud resources and the ability to manage customer environments. The tool speeds up cloud workload creation, cuts security errors and lowers cloud costs.
