About the IDLC Framework

The Infrastructure Development Lifecycle (IDLC) Framework empowers teams to manage infrastructure as code with a modern, scalable, and secure approach, guided by core principles that drive innovation and collaboration.

Discover Our Principles

Our Premises and Tenets

Cloud Agnostic

IDLC operates seamlessly across any cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP) and on-premises environments, ensuring flexibility and avoiding vendor lock-in.

Open Source Friendly

Built exclusively with open-source tools like Terraform, ArgoCD, and GitHub, IDLC promotes transparency, collaboration, and cost-effectiveness.

Automation-First

Prioritizes zero-touch automation across all phases to reduce errors, enhance efficiency, and streamline infrastructure management.

Version-Controlled Infrastructure

Emphasizes robust versioning of infrastructure modules for traceability, reproducibility, and seamless updates or rollbacks.

Scalability and Modularity

Designs infrastructure with modular components to support large, distributed teams and complex, growing deployments.

Security and Compliance by Default

Embeds automated security checks and compliance validation to meet industry standards with minimal manual effort.

Community-Driven Development

Encourages global contributions, supported by extensive documentation and open collaboration channels.
