Challenges

"Breaking the Tradeoff: Why Custom Module Development Fails to Deliver Speed and Governance Together"

85% of Homegrown Modules Lack Compliance Scanning: Security & Audit Risk Exposure

Organizations bring their own custom Terraform modules developed externally but lack infrastructure compliance scanning for these homegrown components, with 85% of custom modules going unscanned and creating significant risk of SOC 2, HIPAA, and FedRAMP violations that can cause audit failures, while teams waste hours manually transferring code between external IDEs and compliance platforms to detect security violations.

70% Development Time Lost to Manual Module Creation: Standardization Chaos

Platform engineering teams struggle with creating reusable, maintainable infrastructure components as developers spend 70% of module development time manually writing boilerplate Terraform code without standardized structures, leading to inconsistent patterns across teams, 3x duplicated efforts, and modules that lack proper versioning, documentation, and governance controls.

60% Productivity Loss From Context Switching: Fragmented Development Workflow

Development teams face 60% productivity losses from constantly switching between external development environments (VS Code, Cursor) and infrastructure platforms to validate compliance, with manual processes for module creation, testing, publishing, and sharing that break the natural development flow and delay time-to-deployment for infrastructure changes by 2-3 weeks.

Solution

Bring your Terraform modules; deploy consistently everywhere

Integrate Terraform modules

Easy onboard existing Terraform resources. Access a centralized catalog of Terraform modules. Reduce duplication and enhance reuse of existing infrastructure components.

Import Terraform modules individually or connect directly from a Registry or other compliant registries.

Analyze, map and visualize

Allow users to map module inputs and outputs to the inputs and outputs of other connected resources while creating the deployment architecture.

Analyze custom Terraform module inputs, outputs and configurations to view.

Create Resource Packs

Package reusable configurations for specific applications or environments. Enable consistency and governance across teams. Reduce setup time by predefining validated module combinations.

Combine custom Terraform modules with built-in StackGen modules.

Enforce architecture governance

Comply with organizational policies. Validate module configurations against security and operational standards. Prevent unauthorized modifications during deployments.

Enforce architectural governance of Resource Packs and custom modules.

Benefits

"Accelerate Velocity Without Sacrificing Compliance in Custom Modules"

100% Compliance Coverage With Real-Time Security Scanning

Transform ungoverned homegrown modules into fully compliant infrastructure components with automated security scanning across SOC 2, HIPAA, and FedRAMP benchmarks, eliminating the 85% of custom modules that previously went unscanned and providing instant violation detection within the development workflow to prevent audit failures and security breaches.

70% Faster Module Creation Through AI-Assisted Generation

Eliminate manual boilerplate coding with intelligent module scaffolding that automatically generates standardized main.tf, variables.tf, and outputs.tf files from natural language descriptions, reducing module development time by 70% while ensuring consistent patterns, proper documentation, and built-in governance controls across all team modules.

Seamless IDE Integration Eliminates 60% Context Switching Overhead

Enable native development workflow with direct VS Code, Cursor, and upcoming IDE integrations that provide real-time compliance feedback, automated publishing, and module sharing without leaving the development environment, eliminating 60% productivity losses from context switching and accelerating infrastructure deployment cycles by 2-3 weeks.
