Stacktape
Stacktape, a DevOps-free cloud framework, is both powerful and simple. It allows you to create, deploy, and run AWS applications. It requires 98% less configuration than other cloud services and does not require any DevOps or Cloud knowledge.
You can deploy serverless (AWS lambda based) or traditional (container based) applications unlike other solutions. Stacktape supports more than 20 infrastructure components, including SQL databases and Loadbalers, MongoDB Atlas clusters clusters, Batch jobs, Kafka topics and Redis clusters.
Stacktape manages infrastructure management as well as source code packaging, deployments and local/remote programming. It also includes a VScode extension (GUI) and a local development studio (GUI).
Stacktape can be used as an IaaC tool. A typical production-grade REST API is ~30 lines of config (compared to ~600-800 lines of CloudFormation/Terraform). You can deploy the application using one command, either from a local machine or from a CI/CD pipeline.

IBM Cloud Schematics
IBM Cloud® Schematics allows automation by providing declarative Terraform templates to create a cloud infrastructure. Red Hat®, Ansible native integration extends configuration, management, and provisioning to software, and integrates other IBM Cloud Services. With Terraform-as-a-Service, DevOps teams can use a high-level configuration language to model the resources they want in their cloud environment and enable Infrastructure as Code (IaC). You can easily install software packages and application codes on your infrastructure. Your team should build, deploy, and iterate on infrastructure automation processes. The DevOps lifecycle can be improved, from planning and building to software testing and monitoring. Satellite and Schematics can be used to automate the creation satellite locations and Red Hat OpenShift®, on IBM Cloud.
