System Initiative Releases DevOps Automation Solution
September 25, 2024

System Initiative announced the general availability of its technology for DevOps Automation.

This approach replaces Infrastructure as Code and sets the foundation for a series of disruptive innovations across the enterprise technology landscape. The SaaS platform is available to DevOps Engineers everywhere with a generous free tier, simple usage-based pricing, and a welcoming, collaborative open source community.

System Initiative has a rich, reactive model that allows infrastructure to be defined and managed as a living architecture. Engineers program the system by writing small reactive functions, making complex customizations easy and dynamic security policy straightforward. Designed to be fully multiplayer, using System Initiative has more in common with Figma and Google Docs than Terraform and GitHub pull requests. It is built on fully open-source software by a company with a deep commitment to Open Source principles and community values. Everything a DevOps engineer needs to get started managing their production infrastructure is included – just a few clicks away.

System Initiative improves on traditional Infrastructure as Code solutions through:

- A Living Architecture diagram makes it easy to see the entire infrastructure at a glance and use the relationships between components to automatically derive complex configurations.

- Rich 1:1 Models that make existing knowledge of AWS and other Cloud Providers instantly usable within System Initiative and learning new technologies straightforward.

- Fine-grained control over when actions are taken which makes it easy to recover from failure and react to changing circumstances.

- Always up-to-date change sets allow teams to propose changes, validate the safety and security of their configurations, and keep things up to date as the environment changes.

- Full programmability through writing small, reactive functions. Users model new services in minutes, customize existing models to conform to organizational security policy, and contribute to the community – all from within the application.

- Batteries included – everything a team needs to run a production infrastructure is in the box. There is no need for other platforms, glue code, or state file management. Everyone is on the same page, all the time.

- Fully multiplayer experience means that users can collaborate with other subject matter experts in real-time to teach, learn, and review proposed changes together. What Figma did for design, System Initiative does for DevOps Engineering.

- 100% Open Source. System Initiative is committed to building an open and collaborative community of developers, customers, users, and partners. Transforming the industry doesn’t happen by yourself.

- Simple usage-based pricing with a generous free tier, large enough to run real production infrastructure. It’s simple to understand, easy to predict, and fair.

“I have spent my entire adult life building and managing complex systems on the internet. I’ve been privileged to work with some of the largest enterprises on the planet, and to fall in love with solving problems at their scale,” said Adam Jacob, CEO of System Initiative. “We built System Initiative because we knew, from experience, that the path to success with DevOps was simply too fraught with peril. It wasn’t enough to simply improve on the status quo. We needed a completely different foundation to escape the gravity of our past technology choices. System Initiative is that new foundation. The community is hungry for change.”
