Description

Arganteal® automates deployment and configuration of networks, infrastructure and workloads on platforms from OpenStack to Azure. Arganteal works with any API, any platform and any layer. An hour of automation can replace eight hours of subject matter expert time. IT Experts spend countless hours of expert time manually deploying, configuring, redeploying, upgrading and patching application stacks. Every stack has process and workflow detail that makes it unique. Arganteal technology allows standard workflows to be compiled with detail and customization unique to the stack such that the entire process can be automated. Companies like Chef and Ansible have invested tens of millions on workflow capture and reuse. None have automated deployment script generation for the full application stack. Arganteal has two issued patents and successful case studies proving this capability. The Arganteal approach captures for reuse the scripts used by current subject matter experts for an application, infrastructure, or network layer. The resulting libraries then inform the patented compilers which produce customized deployment commands for each specific implementation. The result eliminates large blocks of tedious and error prone engineering work and time per deployment.
