Define a new, scalable cloud infrastructure
About Red Hat CloudForms
Define a new, scalable cloud infrastructure. Exert control and clear structures in your cloud environment by creating separate organizations, defining relationships between users, tenants, and projects, and managing quotas and services. Provision your systems through cloud and virtualization platforms like Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, Amazon, and Microsoft Azure, set retirement dates, and scale your environment on your terms. Take your real-world environment and simulate what-if scenarios for proactive resource planning and continuous insights into consumption levels to allow detailed chargeback, quotas, and policy creation. Get a handle on performance, capacity, and workloads through SmartState historical and trend analytics for different aspects of your cloud environment. Define the policy state for your environment, and follow up with automatic alerts and responses as your environment changes.

Massdriver
At Massdriver, we believe in prevention, not permission, letting ops teams enforce guardrails while developers deploy confidently. Our platform encodes your non-negotiables into self-service modules built with your preferred IaC (Terraform, Helm, OpenTofu, etc.) standardizing infrastructure across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes out-of-the-box.
By bundling policy, security, and cost controls into functional IaC assets, Massdriver cuts overhead for ops teams and speeds developer workflows. Through a central service catalog, developers can provision what they need with integrated monitoring, secrets management, and RBAC baked in. No more brittle IaC pipelines; ephemeral CI/CD spins up automatically from each module’s tooling.
Scale faster with unlimited cloud accounts and projects, all while reducing risk and ensuring compliance. Massdriver—fast by default, safe by design.

AWS CloudFormation
AWS CloudFormation is a infrastructure provisioning and management tool that provides you the ability to create resource templates that specifies a set of AWS resources to provision. The templates allow you to version control your infrastructure, and also easily replicate your infrastructure stack quickly and with repeatability. Define an Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) subnet or provisioning services like AWS OpsWorks or Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) with ease. Run anything from a single Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance to a complex multi-region application. Automate, test, and deploy infrastructure templates with continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) automation. AWS CloudFormation lets you model, provision, and manage AWS and third-party resources by treating infrastructure as code. Speed up cloud provisioning with infrastructure as code.

ManageIQ
Manage containers, virtual machines, networks, and storage from a single platform. Connect ManageIQ to your virtualization, container, network, and storage management systems, where it will discover inventory, map relationships, and listen for changes. The result is a rich, up-to-date and cross-referenced dataset that forms the basis for our advanced management capabilities. Define bundles of resources and publish them in a service catalog, from where they can be ordered by end users. Once provisioned, you can manage the full life cycle of a service, including policy, compliance, delegated operations, chargeback/showback, and retirement. Scan the contents of your VMs, hosts, and containers, and combine with auto discovery data to create advanced security and compliance policies. Content scanning works without the help of an agent and therefore works for any VM including foreign and un-cooperative ones.
