As organizations like yours scale, platform engineering teams face constant pressure to deliver seamless experiences, reduce complexity, and maintain security. And you face the battle to improve the developer experience and still deliver.
At Cycloid, our mission is to promote efficient infrastructure and software delivery alongside digital sustainability, all while lightening the cognitive load on IT teams - so we’re excited to share Components with you today.
Components, along with existing projects and environments, gives you a new way to organize and manage your applications more efficiently. With Components, you can now decouple stacks from projects, allowing a single project to contain multiple, distinct components, each linked to a specific environment and stack.
This helps teams govern their multi-tenant environments more effectively and streamline resource deployments in a way that matches complex platform engineering and DevOps practices.
With Components, instead of managing separate projects for different parts of your application, you can now create a single project named ‘My Company Website’ that includes:
With this new architecture you now have a centralized and cohesive view of your entire application, which streamlines workflows by reducing the need to switch between projects.
An important part of Cycloid is our commitment to multi-tenancy. Components fine-tunes that functionality to address the evolving needs of smaller teams and large enterprises. You can now govern multiple internal or external users with even more precise Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), which means the right people have the right access at the right time.
By centralizing governance, your teams benefit from tighter security, better collaboration, and reduced overhead.
Next up is our new approach to managed resource deployment. We’ve integrated:
Ever promoted a change in dev and then found out it broke in staging? Testing and deploying across dev, staging, and production should feel straightforward, not daunting. As part of Components, updates to environment configurations will let you govern, clone, and promote environments quickly, while also composing solutions from multiple stacks. Now you can scale up (or down) without juggling countless scripts or manual processes.
And when coupled with improved security features like shared variables and centralized cloud account management, your team will be able to innovate with greater confidence.
At Cycloid, we understand that true innovation happens when teams are freed from complexity. With Components, flexible, high-level governance to maintain consistency across the organization becomes reality. And add in customizable rules for individual or all projects that are part of an application (or many applications), we’re helping you find the balance between autonomy and oversight.
We’ve updated our documentation to reflect the release of Components. If you want to know more about the specifics of this, or managed resource deployment approach, you’ll find everything you need in our online docs. We encourage you to explore and let us know what you think.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re always here to help you unlock the full potential of your platform engineering efforts with Cycloid.
