AI-powered infrastructure design & IaC toolkit—serves as a no-code cloud architecture platform for DevOps, accelerating infrastructure development and management.

✏️ What does this tool offer?
ArchFormation enables users to visually design cloud architectures on a drag-and-drop canvas, then instantly generate production-grade Terraform code compatible with AWS (and soon Azure/GCP). It facilitates secure, cost‑optimized, scalable infrastructure deployment via GitHub integration .

• Pre-built templates for common use-cases like static websites, microservices, and Kubernetes clusters.

• Automatic enforcement of best practices including zero-trust security and resource optimization.

• GitHub integration: code generated pushes to private repo, ready for deployment.

• Supports multi-environment setups and complex component configurations.

🤖 Does it include automation?
