RackN Digital Rebar Infrastructure Platform provides the available, reliable and fast automation needed by operations teams to support enterprise Platform Engineering efforts.

RackN focuses on infrastructure platforms and platform engineering, addressing challenges faced by operations teams through their self-managed software called Digital Rebar. Their goal is to empower companies to independently manage their infrastructure, whether on-premises or in the cloud, by emphasizing infrastructure-as-code pipelines and process automation. They prioritize availability, reliability, and speed as key factors for success in an infrastructure platform. Through customer journey stories, they demonstrate how their solution has reduced equipment onboarding time, improved system availability, and increased operational speed. Automation, integration with various systems, and handling of edge systems are key features. They also address the challenges of managing Dev and Ops tool sprawl and advocate for a consolidated operational experience. RackN’s Digital Rebar is highlighted as a vendor-neutral infrastructure-as-code automation platform that offers customizable workflows and air gap capabilities.

Personnel: Rob Hirschfeld, Shane Gibson
