Cloudify
Cloudify is an open source multi-cloud orchestration platform.[1][2][3] It employs “Environment as a Service” technology to connect, automate, and manage infrastructure and networking services across on-premises, multi-cloud, and edge environments.[4][5]
Cloudify integrates with TOSCA (Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications), an OASIS standard language to describe a topology of cloud-based web services, their components, relationships, and the processes that manage them.[6] The company later released a commercial version of its software along with its open-source version.[6]
The company was one of the first businesses to provide dedicated orchestration services.[4] Parent company GigaSpaces began creating Cloudify in 2012[5] and launched it as a business unit in 2014.[2][3] Founded by Nati Shalom, it operated under GigaSpaces as an open-source cloud orchestration company for Platform-as-a-Service applications.[1][5]
Cloudify was officially spun off from GigaSpaces on December 1, 2017.[6] After being separated from its parent company, Cloudify retained 60 employees across three offices in New York, NY; San Jose, California; and Tel Aviv, Israel.[3] Nati Shalom remained on as Cloudify’s CTO.[1]
Cloudify's platform features service composition technology that integrates with all cloud environments, including VMware, OpenStack, AWS, Azure, and GCP, along with existing toolchains such as CI/CD, Terraform, and Kubernetes.[2] It enables modernizing on-premises cloud environments as well as managing deployments on public and cloud-native architecture.
