Platform Engineering Labs has updated its open-source Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) platform formae, by adding beta support for four additional cloud providers (Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), and OVHcloud).
“This is the release where formae really opens up,” said Pavlo Baron, co-founder and CEO of Platform Engineering Labs. “We’re covering the major clouds teams run on today, and we’re making it straightforward to extend formae for everything else. If you understand your infrastructure, you can build support for it yourself. That fundamentally changes how infrastructure tooling gets built.”
Updated formae
The new release has evolved the platform so it can be easily extended by infrastructure builders. The platform now combines native multi-cloud support with a schema-safe plugin architecture, empowering engineers to customise without relying on vendor roadmaps or fragile integrations.
formae claims to automatically discover infrastructure resources and codify changes into a unified source of truth, without state management or migrations.
The new Plugin SDK provides a straightforward, predictable way for engineers to extend formae, enabling rapid development in hours instead of weeks or months.
“We wanted extending formae to feel like writing real software, not fighting a provider framework,” said Zachary Schneider, co-founder and CTO of Platform Engineering Labs. “The Plugin SDK gives engineers a clean, predictable surface to build against. You focus on the system you want to support, not on glue code or edge cases.”
