About REVVOPS

For REVVOPS  performance  is built into the name; the portmanteau of revving and DevOps that labels our work. We're engineering cloud infrastructure software first, because it's more challenging to genericise for widespread use than other kinds of cloud applications. "Cloud infrastructure complexity is now exceeding cloud application complexity by a big margin and a new approach is needed quickly" - as a Senior Solutions Architect at a leading cloud provider recently told us in person, at one of their big conferences. As well as being cloud native, all our software  runs native  as well, as you'll come to see when you try it.

In the technology industry, words and phrases such as performance, performant, high performance, fast, faster, the fastest, lightning fast, light weight and other combinations thereof, are used loosely for promotional purposes and usually with no explanation in support of any purported claims.

For REVVOPS  performance  has a definite explanation - it means software product technology that's been compiled, optimized and created to run as native OS binary code without the use of interpreted scripts, virtual machine bytecode interpretation and the like - an approach that when done well scores highly in all metrics used to measure software performance, not to mention the additional benefits of increased application stability, increased application security and reduced configuration management burden.

REVVOPS V7 was based on Terraform, with the REVVOPS CLI originally designed to augment a large number of our own modules.

REVVOPS V8 is based on the open source Pulumi IaC platform and does not make use of domain specific languages (DSLs), proprietary or otherwise. The REVVOPS V8 Core can be supplied with all source code and training options to further any customization needs, but the EP (enterprise production) binaries contain so much configurability you are unlikely to require modifications to the source. The V8 Core source code does however make a great educational resource for those interested in learning non DSL dependent IaC programming techniques.
