Power in simplicity with StackForms
Give your users controlled access to your DevOps automation and reduce tickets by up to 70% in Cycloid’s self-service portal.
What is StackForms?
Take this typical use case: a developer wants to configure a new environment, but choosing variables and knowing permissions requires specialist knowledge - and often the help of your DevOps team. This slows down deployment and draws your team’s focus away from what’s important.
StackForms is a self-service developer portal that acts as the glue between your environments in order for your services to work end-to-end. Here's an example: one Cycloid project could deploy a landing zone with network while another Cycloid project would deploy compute and storage, where the end-user would be able to select a previously deployed landing zone. It's that easy!
