# The framework for your internal developer platform

Turn your Terraform into self-service building blocks. Developers and agents provision, deploy, and monitor without touching IaC, while your platform team controls every detail.

Trusted by platform teams at scale

## Your internal developer platform shouldn't become another product to maintain

### A portal is only the front door

Backstage or Port gives you a catalog — your team still stitches together the IaC, pipelines, approvals, deployments, logs, and metrics behind it.

### Ticket-driven infrastructure doesn't scale

Every request pulls platform engineers into another handoff while developers wait for infrastructure they could safely provision themselves.

### Building every integration yourself never ends

The first golden path is easy. Keeping every template, workflow, dashboard, and cloud integration working is the real platform tax.

Until Ravion

## Your standards, enforced.
A self-service catalog developers love.

See how Ravion becomes your IDP in 5 steps

Step 1

### Create reusable modules from Terraform

Write a YAML file that defines typed inputs for your Terraform, or start from our open source standard library.

Replaces copy-paste Terraform, one-off templates

Step 2

### Developers provision from your catalog

Each module becomes a typed form. Developers fill in the inputs you exposed — everything else stays locked to your defaults.

Replaces Backstage, Port, Cortex

Step 3

### Track every IaC and infrastructure change

Every module instance becomes a stack with reviewable plans, approval gates, managed state, and a versioned history of every resource.

Replaces Terraform Cloud, Spacelift, Env0

Step 4

### Deploy containers, Lambdas, and static sites

Attach builds and deploys to the same reusable modules. Give developers safe rollbacks, blue-green releases, and instance-level visibility without another CD system.

Replaces Argo CD, Flux, custom CD pipelines

Step 5

### Every team gets an operational canvas

Connect infrastructure, deploys, logs, metrics, and alarms so developers can understand their services without bouncing between tools.

Replaces AWS Console, Datadog, Grafana

> We outgrew Heroku, but direct AWS was unrealistic. I love Ravion’s agent-friendly structure for getting great defaults on AWS while still being able to customize deployments just the way we need. And their support has been invaluable.

Platform engineering questions

### Why is Ravion a framework instead of another PaaS?

A PaaS gives every team the same fixed abstraction and eventually becomes a ceiling. Ravion gives your platform team a complete starting point, then lets you fork, replace, or lock down its modules and pipelines. Developers get a polished self-service experience while your standards and infrastructure stay yours. [Read our product philosophy](https://www.ravion.com/docs/philosophy)

### How is Ravion different from Backstage, Port, or Cortex?

Those products primarily provide a portal or catalog that you connect to the rest of your platform. Ravion is the execution layer too: it turns approved modules into developer-facing forms, runs Terraform plans and applies, enforces pipeline approvals, deploys applications, and connects each module to its resources, logs, and metrics. You get the front door and what happens behind it.

### Can we use our existing Terraform?

Yes. Add a module.yaml file that defines the typed inputs you want to expose, then publish the module for developers to self-serve. You can also start with Ravion's open source standard library and replace modules incrementally as your platform matures. [Learn about module definitions](https://www.ravion.com/docs/module-definitions/definition-schema)

### How does the platform team keep control?

You decide which modules are available, which inputs developers can set, which values are fixed, and which pipelines execute changes. Terraform plans, policy checks, and approval gates stay visible before apply, while every resource and version change is recorded afterward.

### Do developers need to know Terraform?

No. Developers select an approved module and fill in the typed form your platform team generated from module.yaml. Ravion handles the plan, approval, apply, build, and deploy pipeline while keeping the underlying details available to platform engineers when they need them.

### Does our infrastructure stay in our cloud account?

Yes. Ravion is a control plane. Infrastructure, application traffic, runtime secrets, builds, Terraform runs, and pipeline runners stay in your own AWS account. If Ravion has downtime, your running applications and infrastructure keep working. [See how Ravion works](https://www.ravion.com/docs/how-ravion-works)

### Can we adopt Ravion without replacing our whole platform?

Yes. Start with one module, project, or team. Keep existing CI, observability, and infrastructure where they are, then move workflows into Ravion as it becomes useful. Existing cloud resources can be imported into Terraform state without recreating them.

### Can AI agents use the same golden paths?

Yes. Agents use the same approved modules and pipelines through Ravion's CLI and API. They can propose config changes and review dry-run diffs, but infrastructure still passes through the plans, policies, and approval gates your platform team controls.

## Turn your Terraform into
a platform developers actually use

Publish your first golden path and give developers a safe way to self-serve.
