Northflank
Northflank is a production workload platform that gives developers a self-service way to build, deploy, and scale any workload on their cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, and more). Their mission is to simplify infrastructure on any cloud so developers can spend more time shipping the code their customers pay them for.

About
Northflank's customers, developers and engineering teams, often face significant challenges with infrastructure complexity when trying to build, deploy, and scale their applications. The traditional approach involves manually stitching together disparate tools or dedicating substantial resources to building and maintaining internal developer platforms, leading to slow release cycles and a frustrating developer experience. This is why Northflank provides a production workload platform designed to simplify this entire process. Our mission is to empower developers to do what they do best: write code and ship new features, rather than getting bogged down in managing infrastructure. We enable them to build, deploy, and scale any workload—be it applications, databases, or jobs—on their own cloud (AWS, GCP, Azure, Civo, OCI, and more) or on Northflank's secure infrastructure, all through a self-service model. By offering a powerful abstraction to Kubernetes, Northflank gives engineering teams control and flexibility over their infrastructure without sacrificing developer experience. This approach improves consistency and reliability as workloads are deployed using composable workflows defined via an intuitive UI or Infrastructure as Code. Whether our customers are running a single service or thousands, Northflank seamlessly supports their workload and infrastructure requirements. We help them avoid vendor lock-in and provide total control over data residency, deployment regions, security, and cloud expenses. Ultimately, Northflank aims to become the default way engineering teams deploy and operate software, raising the skill ceiling and lowering the barriers to entry for all engineers working with cloud infrastructure. Companies like Sentry, Writer, and Chai Discovery have already adopted Northflank to simplify how they build and deploy new products, benefiting from our full-fledged APIs for rapid feature deployment and a best-in-class developer experience.
