What do you like best about the product?

Spacelift has done a positive transformation to the way we manage our infrastructure. Now we have a tool with a lot of built-in guards so that developers are able to provision their infrastructure themselves, with minimal assistance from infrastructure engineers. This includes amazing integration with GitHub, tests, policies and everything is done as code.

What do you dislike about the product?

I wish Spacelift could grow faster in terms of features, since we rely on the tool more and more.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We want to manage our infrastructure as code, this becomes particularly difficult, since we have many dev teams. Overall, there is three strategies to provision the infrastructure available to us: a dedicated team for this, everyone can do anything and a centralized tool. In the organization of this size, a dedicated team quickly becomes a bottleneck and too broad permissions lead to failures in production. We had to to come up with a centralized tool, and the way Spacelift implements this idea really fits our needs.
