Our AWS Cloud Automation Quickstart series is a step-by-step guide to deploying a functioning web server through the AWS portal.

AWS EC2 and cloud-init are the next steps in our 'AWS Cloud Automation Quickstart - Build a Web Server' series. This blog covers both.

This is the second blog in our 'AWS Cloud Automation Quickstart - Build a Web Server' series. We setup the Network Access Control List (NACL).

This is the first blog in our 'AWS Cloud Automation Quickstart - Build a Web Server' series. We start with the VPC and subnet.

This blog walks through a demo of the Tuono Secrets Manager. Keeping secrets safe in the cloud is critical to cloud automation.

This blog walks through the steps to setup an Application Gateway in Azure. We also include the code to completely automate the deployment with Tuono.

This article provides an introduction to Tuono Environments. It covers Environments, venues, credentials, and jobs and how they fit in the Tuono cloud automation platform.

Tuono allows you to set groups of variables using a mechanism we call "presets". Please help us come up with a better name!

Tuono Secrets Management offers a point and click secrets manager with integrated RBAC, logging and end to end secret protrection.

In this bonus blog in our 'Azure Cloud Automation Quickstart - Build a Web Server' series we add variables to customize our Blueprint.

This blog shows how to use userdata to setup Docker and the required cloud infrastructure in the free tier of either AWS or Azure.

Our Azure Cloud Automation Quickstart series is a step-by-step guide to deploying a functioning web server through the Azure portal.

In the third blog in our 'Azure Cloud Automation Quickstart - Build a Web Server' series we create a virtual machine and setup NGINX with cloud-init.

This article provides an introduction to Tuono Blueprints. It covers Blueprints, variables, and versioning and how they fit in a cloud automation ecosystem.

The second blog in our ‘Azure Cloud Automation Quickstart – Build a Web Server’ series provides instructions on how to configure a network security group.

The first blog in our ‘Azure Cloud Automation Quickstart – Build a Web Server’ series provides instructions on how to configure the resource group, virtual network, and subnet.

Public Key Authentication is a robust security framework that can be used by the SSH protocol to support both interactive (user) and automatic (programmatic) access to virtual machines. It is essential when enabling programmatic access to the components that comprise an application, e.g. the traditional client-server relationship.

We are excited to announce the release of Tuono Community Edition - a full-featured version of our Infrastructure as Code automation platform. Tuono Community Edition enables you and your team to quickly create, deploy, and manage your IaaS infrastructure in AWS or Azure for free.

Running your infrastructure in the public cloud has the potential to improve the speed and agility of your IT Operations. Cloud automation is the key to realizing this potential. For many, however, the complexity of operationalizing and scaling cloud automation is slowing or stalling adoption.

The other day, I sat in on a demo Jesse St. Laurent was giving. The customer had a question about whether a feature worked in a specific scenario. Since it turns out that I wrote the feature, Jesse decided to defer to me. My answer was something to the effect of, “I’m 99% certain it works, but we’ll need to test it to be sure.”  

We have developed a tradition of monthly engineering team lunches at Tuono. The best part is that we have convinced Mike Stack to cook for us. Mike is a fantastic cook and he loves to cook for a group. So, we like to think of it as a win-win. Mike gets to cook, and we get to eat.

In this demo video, I log into a brand new Tuono account, just as a customer does. I deploy infrastructure to AWS and Azure from a single cloud agnostic blueprint in less than 10 minutes. To keep it interesting, I race against myself creating a cup of French press coffee.

This is a look inside the core values that shape Tuono and influence the decisions we make every day. We believe these values best represent who we are and what we aspire to be as a company.

This is a demo of the Tuono platform managing Azure. Add a disk to an instance and modify an access control list (ACL) with 3 lines of human readable code.

Check out this demo of the Tuono platform deploying a basic infrastructure to AWS and Azure using a single human readable blueprint. We call it Intent based infrastructure. You declare what you want to build and we handle all the cloud details for you.

Tuono has removed the complexity from Infrastructure as Code. The Tuono Intent Engine delivers intent based infrastructure in the public cloud with less code, less time, and less complexity. Declare infrastructure once and deploy it in either AWS or Azure. It is that simple.

I despise inefficiency. I like to think of it as a passion, but others have suggested it’s more of a disorder. This is my story of how that passion drove me to start a company to simplify Infrastructure as Code and public cloud management.
