Finally – Your cloud, your standards, at build and runtime.

Lightlytics has introduced a new feature called Architectural Standards, which allows cloud operation teams to integrate their collective knowledge into the system using predefined and custom rules to manage configuration changes effectively. This feature ensures security, availability, and cost management by applying guardrails from the moment a change is planned through its implementation and real-time event logging. By providing context that is often missing in Infrastructure as Code (IaC) analysis tools and cloud scanners, Lightlytics enables DevOps engineers to understand the impact of changes on infrastructure and perform root cause analysis efficiently. The system facilitates the prevention of misconfigurations and security issues before they arise, allowing infrastructure engineers to delegate responsibilities confidently. Architectural Standards support the definition of both resource-based and connection/path-based rules and offer real-time inspection during the Terraform simulation phase and post-deployment, with alerts communicated through channels like Slack or email. With this comprehensive approach, Lightlytics helps teams enforce business logic across multiple accounts and regions, ultimately reducing time-consuming internal processes and enhancing the effectiveness of cloud operations.
