SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 13, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HashiCorp®, the leader in multi-cloud infrastructure automation software, today announced at its HashiConf Digital Partner Summit, that its HashiCorp Technology Partner Program has grown to include more than 100 technology partners with more than 250 integrations in its ecosystem. During the past 12 months, HashiCorp has deepened product integrations across its portfolio with partners like Datadog, F5, GitHub, Palo Alto Networks, and worked on new integrations with partners including Cisco, MongoDB, ServiceNow, and Splunk.
The HashiCorp Technology Partner Program, which is designed for technology companies to integrate and support their offerings with HashiCorp products, offers enterprises out-of-the-box, verified solutions so they can maintain consistent workflows as they deploy their preferred technology stacks. The partner integrations connect with one or more of the company’s multi-cloud infrastructure automation products: HashiCorp Terraform®, Vault™, Consul®, and Nomad™ for infrastructure, security, networking, and application automation.
“Today, enterprises are in the midst of digital transformation initiatives, which are critical to achieving business outcomes. The cloud is at the center of this shift, providing the opportunity to rapidly deploy on-demand services at immense scale,” said Burzin Patel, vice president, global alliances at HashiCorp. “Having a common cloud operating model supported by HashiCorp products and our fast-growing partner ecosystem helps our joint customers scale with agility so they can achieve their goals.”
As part of the HashiCorp Technology Partners Program, HashiCorp validates partner integrations with the HashiCorp products through testing and review. The HashiCorp Technology Partner ecosystem has more than doubled in size in the past year.
Some key integrations across the HashiCorp suite of products include:
- Terraform is the foundation for cloud infrastructure automation via infrastructure as code for provisioning, compliance, and management of any cloud, infrastructure, or service. Leading integrations across Terraform Cloud and Enterprise, with technology partners include:
- GitHub: Both Terraform Cloud and Terraform Enterprise support GitHub as a software development platform. As changes are committed to a repository that affect the attached Terraform organization, Terraform will initiate a run and make the necessary changes to accommodate the change. Terraform can also be used to maintain GitHub itself. The GitHub Terraform provider lets operators create and manage repositories, teams, and organizations. Further, GitHub Actions set up and configure the Terraform CLI in the GitHub Actions workflow.
- ServiceNow: Use ServiceNow as a self-service frontend for infrastructure automation workflows with Terraform implementations.
- Cisco: Use the Terraform ACI Provider to support all aspects of bringing up and configuring ACI infrastructure across any workload, in any location, and in any cloud.
- Splunk: Use the Terraform Cloud for Splunk app for audit logging and better insight into Terraform Cloud operations.
- Consul is the foundation for cloud networking automation, which connects and secures services across any runtime platform and cloud. Leading Consul integrations with technology partners include:
- F5: Use F5 BIG-IP and NGINX (now part of F5) with Consul to automate dynamic, service-based infrastructure and security for modern applications or SaaS solutions. Consul could also be used with F5 BIG-IP for service discovery to simplify networking tasks through automation.
- Cisco: Use Consul service discovery with Cisco ACI to monitor and optimize application connectivity across any environment.
- Palo Alto Networks: Use Consul service catalog and service segmentation with Palo Alto Networks firewalls for service catalog object updates such as: service definitions, intentions, and health checks.
- A10 Networks: Use the Consul service catalog with A10 vThunder Load Balancer to load balance across mesh services.
- Vault is the foundation for multi-cloud identity based security. Purpose-built for the cloud era, Vault authenticates and provides access to different clouds, systems, and endpoints, and centrally stores, accesses, and deploys secrets. It also provides a simple workflow to encrypt data in flight and at rest. Leading Vault integrations with technology partners include:
- NetApp: Use Vault as an external key manager solution with the built-in Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) standard for securing and encrypting OnTap storage systems.
- GitLab: Authenticate into Vault using GitLab’s OIDC authentication feature or JWT Auth, which allows developers to use their GitLab identity to authenticate to Vault.
- Splunk: Vault App on Splunkbase offers a set of prebuilt Splunk dashboards that allow operators to understand how Vault is running and to keep the Vault cluster healthy.
- MongoDB: Generate dynamic database credentials from Vault to manage and control access for database users and API keys programmatically.
- VMware: In vSphere environments, use Vault to centrally manage secrets operations through Vault. In the Tanzu platform, authenticate into Vault using the Cloud Foundry instance identity service to retrieve Vault tokens for Cloud Foundry instances.
- Venafi: Use Vault’s PKI backend integration with Venafi’s machine identity platform to manage the lifecycle of X.509 certificates to provide secure machine-to-machine connections.
- Nomad is a simple and flexible orchestrator for managing both containerized and non-containerized applications across on-premises and cloud environments at any scale. Leading integrations with Nomad include:
- Datadog: Monitor Nomad cluster performance, health, and availability with Datadog by utilizing Nomad's telemetry data and compiling it for use in Datadog dashboards.
- JFrog: Use JFrog Artifactory and Nomad for Cluster Management to build and deploy in a repeatable, safer and faster workflow.
