Cycloid
Cycloid is the leading unified Internal Developer Portal and Platform, built with a GitOps first approach. With our Portal and Platform, you don’t need to start from scratch to get a fully customized solution.
We optimize the developer experience and operational efficiency by accelerating the delivery of a developer portal and platform, alleviating the cognitive load on IT teams and advocating for FinOps & Green IT practices.
Platform teams design, build and run the platform, enabling end-users to visualize, deploy, manage projects, and interact with cutting-edge DevOps and Cloud automation regardless of skill level, while keeping best practices in place.
It can be consumed through the console, in CLI or in API, and is available as SaaS or self-hosted.
We are the editor of OSS projects TerraCognita: reverse Terraform; InfraMap: infra diagram; and Terracost: cost estimation. We work with global organizations, US and European public institutions and 6 of the top 10 SI service providers.

Google Compute Engine
Compute Engine (IaaS), a platform from Google that allows organizations to create and manage cloud-based virtual machines, is an infrastructure as a services (IaaS).
Computing infrastructure in predefined sizes or custom machine shapes to accelerate cloud transformation. General purpose machines (E2, N1,N2,N2D) offer a good compromise between price and performance. Compute optimized machines (C2) offer high-end performance vCPUs for compute-intensive workloads. Memory optimized (M2) systems offer the highest amount of memory and are ideal for in-memory database applications. Accelerator optimized machines (A2) are based on A100 GPUs, and are designed for high-demanding applications. Integrate Compute services with other Google Cloud Services, such as AI/ML or data analytics. Reservations can help you ensure that your applications will have the capacity needed as they scale. You can save money by running Compute using the sustained-use discount, and you can even save more when you use the committed-use discount.

Pepperdata
Pepperdata autonomous, application-level cost optimization delivers 30-47% greater cost savings for data-intensive workloads such as Apache Spark on Amazon EMR and Amazon EKS with no application changes. Using patented algorithms, Pepperdata Capacity Optimizer autonomously optimizes CPU and memory in real time with no application code changes.
Pepperdata automatically analyzes resource usage in real time, identifying where more work can be done, enabling the scheduler to add tasks to nodes with available resources and spin up new nodes only when existing nodes are fully utilized. The result: CPU and memory are autonomously and continuously optimized, without delay and without the need for recommendations to be applied, and the need for ongoing manual tuning is safely eliminated.
Pepperdata pays for itself, immediately decreasing instance hours/waste, increasing Spark utilization, and freeing developers from manual tuning to focus on innovation.

Massdriver
At Massdriver, we believe in prevention, not permission. Our self-service platform lets ops teams encode their expertise and your organization’s non-negotiables into pre-approved infrastructure modules—using familiar IaC tools like Terraform, Helm, or OpenTofu. Each module embeds policy, security, and cost controls, transforming raw configuration into functional software assets that streamline multi-cloud deployments across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes.
By centralizing provisioning, secrets management, and RBAC, Massdriver cuts overhead for ops teams while empowering developers to visualize and deploy resources without bottlenecks. Built-in monitoring, alerting, and metrics retention reduce downtime and expedite incident resolution, driving ROI through proactive issue detection and optimized spend.
No more juggling brittle pipelines—ephemeral CI/CD automatically spins up based on the tooling in each module. Scale faster and safer with unlimited projects and cloud accounts while ensuring compliance at every step. Massdriver—fast by default, safe by design.
