Firefly vs. Gambit

Don't Gamble Your Resilience With a Scorecard

Firefly is a battle-tested Automated Cloud Resilience platform trusted by hundreds of organizations worldwide, delivering a complete path from resilience posture to rapid infrastructure restoration after outages and cyberattacks.

Recognized by Gartner as a leading CAIRS in the 2025 Hype Cycle for Backup & Data Protection.
Trusted by leading organizations

Gambit Only Provides a Score.
Firefly Makes Your Infra Resilient and Recovers It Instantly.

Knowing you're vulnerable is a start, but it's not true resilience if you have no automated way to act on it.
Some teams are okay with that. We applaud the optimism.

What Firefly Gives You

Resilience Posture and Automated Recovery. Not Just a Score.

Validate resilience posture continuously, across multi-cloud, Kubernetes, and SaaS

Expose hidden gaps in your recovery plans before an incident finds them for you

Prove compliance against DORA, SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA, with evidence, not assumptions

Instantly rebuild full environments after outages and cyberattacks with minimal downtime

Scan your cloud and create a unified System of Record across all resources, dependencies, and relationships

Achieve 100% IaC coverage by turning your entire infrastructure into IaC, governing it, and keeping it drift-free

Orchestrate and provision infrastructure safely with built-in guardrails, using existing CI/CD pipelines or Firefly runners

Don't Gamble on Gambit

Knowing how to recover is not the same as recovering.
Both platforms score your resilience posture, but only Firefly's DR Agent actually executes the recovery, automatically rebuilding full environments with all dependencies, cross-region fail over, and RTO under one hour. No manual runbooks required.
Firefly turns every ungoverned resource into Terraform/Tofu, and keeps it continuously drift-free.
Gambit maps IaC as a data source alongside cloud and backups, but it doesn't write, manage, or rebuild your infrastructure.
Both detect drift. Firefly fixes it in code.
Gambit only surfaces what changed. Firefly detects drift and automatically remediates it by opening a PR, with no manual intervention required.
Both cover compliance. Firefly enforces it.
Gambit generates audit-ready evidence on demand for resilience regulations, but Firefly also enforces them at provisioning, blocking violations before they occur and triggering automated AI remediation when gaps appear.
Firefly orchestrates your infra. Gambit only observes it.
Gambit reads your stack. Firefly runs IaC workflows through GitOps, integrates into CI/CD, and enables self-service provisioning from reusable blueprints.
Firefly is Gartner-recognized. Gambit is not.
Gartner created the CAIRS category to address the gap between data backup and infrastructure recovery, and named Firefly a leader in the Hype Cycle for Backup and Data Protection, 2025.

Why You Shouldn’t Choose Us Instead of Gambit

01
If you don’t need to recover from incidents.
Resilience score is good enough.
02
If you love adding tools to your stack.
One tool finds gaps. Another fixes them. You enjoy the integration overhead. Carry on.
03
If IaC isn't in your strategy.
Your engineers love the manual labor.
04
If rollback doesn't keep you up at night.
You're confident you can reconstruct you environments from scratch. Chaos is a valid architectural choice.
05
If you prefer governance the slow way.
Your engineers never make mistakes. Automated policy enforcement sounds like overkill.
06
If you'd rather validate than execute.
Knowing your parachute might not open is useful enough.
