Stacklet Platform delivers frictionless governance that accelerates cloud adoption in large-scale environments
2021-05-28 02:00

Stacklet announced Stacklet Platform, which allows cloud engineering and security teams to easily understand, codify, and automate cloud governance for a frictionless experience for development teams and rapid cloud adoption.

Many organizations identify governance as a key inhibitor to their cloud adoption journey, and a lack of visibility into cloud infrastructure introduces cloud security risks which presents a key challenge for customers as they move into the public cloud.

"Software developers are like kids in a candy store when it comes to selecting and configuring all of the public cloud services they want to use for creating their applications," said Torsten Volk, Managing Research Director, EMA. "This makes governance hard and the number one challenge that delays cloud adoption and deployment. The idea behind the Stacklet Platform and the underlying Cloud Custodian open source project is so exciting as it disrupts the uphill battle for corporate IT to constantly chase after new accounts and application stacks to at least implement a minimum of compliance, security and cost controls."

"Innovating securely in the cloud requires a paradigm shift from traditional approaches to governance," said Naor Penso, Senior Director of Product Security, FICO. "Governance as Code is a strategic need for us and our partnership with Stacklet enables us to build the ecosystem towards development teams enablement and dynamic guardrail enforcement, defined by our organization. Stacklet accelerates our approach to this model and empowers our security teams to automate and scale real-time, continuous evaluation and enforcement of our cloud governance policies."

Designed in partnership with several Fortune 1000 organizations, Stacklet Platform extends Cloud Custodian with robust management capabilities, real-time cloud asset visibility, out-of-box policy packs, and other advanced features to help businesses innovate securely in the cloud at scale.

"We developed Stacklet Platform to help organizations scale Cloud Custodian within enterprise environments to increase visibility, decrease risk and introduce frictionless governance."
