Modern applications with built-in automation

Habitat

Want to try Habitat? Get started here.

Habitat is an application automation framework that allows you to build applications that have automation built-in. This provides modern applications that:

• Provide repeatable builds
• Run from single, immutable assets
• Allow for runtime configuration for multiple deployment scenarios
• Are agnostic to operating environment (works the same on bare metal, virtualization, containers, PaaS)
• Provide idempotent behavior (the same inputs to the same asset provide the same outcome)
• Provide convergent behavior (each service makes progress towards the correct behavior in the face of failure)
• Expose promises to those who rely on it
• Provide a low barrier to entry
• Are language agnostic
