12-factor-apps

12-factor app compliance audits assess your codebase against the 12-factor methodology to ensure cloud-native readiness. The analysis scans factors like codebase management, dependencies, configuration handling, and backing services, then generates a structured report identifying gaps and remediation guidance for your architecture.

The 12-factor methodology is a set of best practices for building scalable, maintainable SaaS applications. It covers codebase organization, dependency declaration, configuration management, and process design. Following these factors ensures your application can deploy reliably across cloud environments and scale efficiently.

Yes. During architecture audits and SaaS reviews, you can scan your codebase to detect antipatterns across factors like port binding, concurrency models, and backing service configuration. The analysis flags violations and provides practical search patterns and remediation steps for each factor.

The report assesses factor-by-factor compliance across codebase structure, dependencies, configuration, backing services, build and run separation, stateless processes, and port binding. It generates structured findings with detection results and practical guidance for addressing each compliance gap in your code and configuration.

No special dependencies are required. Provide your codebase root path and run the analysis. The audit scans your code, configuration files, and dependency declarations against the 12-factor factors, then generates an immediate compliance report with no additional setup.

Run compliance checks during cloud-native deployment evaluations, SaaS application reviews, and architecture audits. It's particularly valuable when migrating to cloud platforms, refactoring monolithic applications, or validating that existing codebases follow distributed systems best practices.
