Rafay, founded seven years ago, initially focused on Kubernetes but has evolved to address the broader challenge of simplifying compute consumption across various environments. Their solution aims to provide self-service compute to companies across verticals.
Rafay typically engages with companies that already have existing infrastructure, automation, and deployments. The core problem they solve is standardization across diverse environments and users. They help companies build a platform engineering function that enables efficient management of environments, upgrades, and policies. The Rafay platform abstracts the underlying infrastructure, providing an interface for users to request and consume compute resources without needing to understand the complexities of the underlying systems.
Rafay’s platform allows organizations to deliver self-service compute across diverse environments and teams, managing identity, policies, and automation. The goal is to reduce the time developers waste on infrastructure tasks, which, according to Rafay, can be as high as 20% in large enterprises. They offer a comprehensive solution that encompasses inventory management, governance, and control, all while generating the underlying infrastructure as code for versioning and auditability. In summary, Rafay enables companies to move away from custom, in-house solutions to a standardized, automated, and cloud-like compute consumption model.
