"[At one point we were] migrating our build servers from an on-prem data center to AWS, using a feature that launches an Ami. But the Ami definition that we were using was not set up to remove the volumes. So we had 50 or 100 instances getting launched every day: each leaving its volumes behind, growing exponentially. That's behind us now."

"I would highly recommend Firefly for any team who wants to have a centralized cloud asset catalog, across all vendors, that also helps you move faster, build more advanced solutions, and improve overall engineering efficiency."

Our primary goal was to get all our resources in Terraform: to be fully codified and compliant, so we can migrate resources and configurations for disaster recovery, if we ever had to rebuild or spin the code back up. Firefly was the key to that.

If you are certain that you have full visibility of your assets, even across multi-cloud environments
Your cloud is constantly scanned for issues, and you already know what percentage of your cloud is codified in IaC and unmanaged, plus what has drifted from Terraform. Everything is well-documented in case of disaster.
âCompare Firefly to HCPÂ Terraform âIf you love adding yet another tool to your existing tech stack, or relying on an additional CI/CD platform that doesn't integrate into your current workflow
For organizations where Firefly isnât a fit, IaC automation is simply not a priority.
âCompare Firefly to HCPÂ Terraform âIf naive codification without support for dependencies or modules is âgood enoughâ
You also may need to be a fan of doing unnecessary manual work instead of using templates (or modules), or enjoy using crappy code that doesn't follow best practices.
âCompare Firefly to HCPÂ Terraform âIf not having any asset history or change log makes you feel like a daredevil, and you enjoy the challenge of solving problems when you can't see what changes were made, or who made them
Your team doesnât care to be able to roll back to previous versions, and already feels confident in their ability to pass auditing and do troubleshooting as is.
âCompare Firefly to HCPÂ Terraform âIf, for your team, ensuring that deployments and configurations are within policy is more effective when handled manually
In this scenario, your DevOps engineers are uncharacteristically impervious to human error.
âCompare Firefly to HCPÂ Terraform âIf, in the event of an incident, your engineers would rather re-create your configurations than keep them centrally documented
Chaos is the spice of life, and you believe that redoing work is the cornerstone of positive morale.

Enterprise Infrastructure Requires Enterprise-Ready Solutions
When your infrastructure supports billions in revenue and thousands of employees across global ops, you can't afford to manage it with platforms that canât scale or integrate with your existing stack. Firefly offers total enterprise cloud management control across your cloud providers, IaC frameworks, and SaaS apps, like Okta and Datadog.
