What problem does it solve?

Scaffold eliminates ambiguity around cloud and local environment provisioning by centralizing Terraform, CloudFormation, Pulumi, and Docker Compose guidance so teams can ship reproducible, secure infrastructure without drifting into console-only fixes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-cloud IaC design: Define provider assumptions, remote state/backends, network topology, IAM, and secret management for AWS, GCP, Azure, or hybrid deployments.
  • Local environment parity: Craft Docker Compose/dev setup guidance covering .env validation, named volumes, and health checks to mirror production expectations safely.
  • Governance and handoff: Track tagging requirements, environment segmentation, policy checks, cost notes, and durable decisions for downstream Gear/Beacon/Sentinel partners.
  • Use case: Bring a new service online with Terraform modules, Docker Compose for developer machines, and review steps to satisfy security, cost, and verification controls.

Quick Start

Ask Scaffold to design Terraform and Docker Compose layouts for the new environment.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design Terraform modules for multi-cloud infrastructure across AWS, GCP, and Azure?

Designing Terraform modules for multi-cloud infrastructure requires defining provider assumptions, remote state backends, network topology, and IAM roles. Scaffold generates these configurations while enforcing environment separation, tagging requirements, and security validation before handoff.

What is the best way to set up Docker Compose for local development environments that mirror production?

Setting up Docker Compose for local development involves configuring .env validation, named volumes, and health checks to mirror production expectations safely. Scaffold provides reproducible dev environment configurations to prevent drift from your deployed infrastructure.

Can I use Pulumi and CloudFormation together for infrastructure as code provisioning?

You can use Pulumi and CloudFormation for infrastructure as code provisioning when managing hybrid cloud deployments. Scaffold designs configurations for both tools alongside Terraform, ensuring consistent remote state locking, secret management, and environment segmentation across providers.

How do I manage remote state locking and secrets when provisioning cloud infrastructure?

Managing remote state locking and secrets during cloud infrastructure provisioning requires configuring secure backends and IAM policies. Scaffold designs IaC configurations that integrate remote state locking, secret management, and security validation to ensure reproducible environments.

Does infrastructure as code provisioning support governance checks for tagging and cost tracking?

Infrastructure as code provisioning supports governance checks by enforcing tagging requirements, policy checks, and cost notes within the configuration. Scaffold tracks these durable decisions to satisfy security, cost, and verification controls for downstream team handoff.
