🚀 What is Planton?

Planton combines open source infrastructure modules with a commercial orchestration platform to eliminate DevOps bottlenecks.

Project Planton (Open Source)

  • 120+ Terraform & Pulumi deployment modules for AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean, Civo, Cloudflare
  • CLI tools for local infrastructure management (project-planton)
  • Schema definitions and validation rules (Protocol Buffers)
  • All code public and auditable at github.com/plantonhq/project-planton

Planton Cloud (Commercial Platform)

  • SaaS orchestration layer that runs the open source modules
  • Service Hub for backend CI/CD (Tekton-powered)
  • AI Agents for DevOps automation (Beta)
  • Multi-cloud management without vendor lock-in

The Difference: With Terraform Cloud or Pulumi Cloud, you write and maintain modules yourself. With Planton, we provide 120+ production-ready modules that you can audit, fork, or use independently.


📦 Open Source Deployment Components

All infrastructure modules are 100% open source. Audit every line of code, fork for customization, or use independently of the platform.

Cloud Infrastructure

  • Networking: VPC, Subnets, NAT Gateways, Route Tables
  • DNS & Certificates: Route53, Cloud DNS, ACM, Let's Encrypt
  • Load Balancing: ALB, NLB, Cloud Load Balancer, Application Gateway

Container Platforms

  • AWS: ECS, EKS, App Runner
  • GCP: GKE, Cloud Run, Artifact Registry
  • Azure: AKS, Container Apps, Container Registry
  • Kubernetes: Standard K8s deployments across any provider

Databases & Storage

  • Relational: PostgreSQL, MySQL, Aurora, Cloud SQL
  • NoSQL: MongoDB, DynamoDB, Firestore, Cosmos DB
  • Caching: Redis, Memcached, Elasticache
  • Object Storage: S3, GCS, Azure Blob Storage

Queues & Streaming

  • Message Queues: SQS, Pub/Sub, Service Bus, RabbitMQ
  • Event Streaming: Kafka, Kinesis, Event Hubs

Quick Start

# Install CLI
brew install project-planton/tap/project-planton

# Deploy AWS ECS environment
planton chart install aws-ecs \
  --name api \
  --env prod \
  --values values.yaml

# Output:
# ✓ VPC created (3m 12s)
# ✓ Load Balancer configured (4m 45s)
# ✓ ECR registry ready (1m 30s)
# ✓ SSL certificates issued (2m 15s)
# ✓ DNS configured (1m 8s)
# ⚡ Complete in 12 minutes

🏗️ Built on Open Standards

No proprietary formats. No vendor lock-in by design.

Standard Technology Why
IaC Terraform & Pulumi Not a custom DSL—use the tools you know
CI/CD Tekton (CNCF Graduated) Kubernetes-native, portable, extensible
Git GitHub & GitLab OAuth integration, existing workflows
Containers Docker & Kubernetes Standard OCI images, vanilla K8s resources
Schemas Protocol Buffers Language-agnostic validation and code generation

Exit Strategy Built-In:

  1. Export all configurations as YAML manifests (one API call)
  2. Use project-planton CLI independently from your own CI/CD
  3. Fork and modify any deployment module on GitHub
  4. Migrate to GitHub Actions using exported Tekton pipelines
