Successful cloud adoption requires a unified approach to deploying, securing, and managing applications.

To do this, organizations form platform teams. These cloud engineers build consistent tools and systems for application teams — think automated workflows, compliant golden images, and a central system of record. These shared services replace manual tasks and standardize deployments, helping developers work faster.

The Infrastructure Cloud from HashiCorp helps platform teams create shared services and workflows via a unified platform. This new cloud operating model lets them take a programmatic approach to the lifecycle management of their infrastructure and security resources.
