Self-Service That Actually Works
True developer self-service with enterprise governance. No compromises.
The Productivity Paradox
While Development has gained 10X speed, Software Delivery is sluggish
Ticket Ops Bottleneck
Developers wait days for simple environment requests
Governance vs. Speed
Strict controls slow delivery, loose controls create risks
Cognitive Load
Different tools, different processes, different outcomes
Every developer request represents lost velocity. Teams spend 20-30% of their time on infrastructure coordination instead of building features.
Beyond Developer Portals
Why Most Self-Service Developer Portal Initiatives Fail
Developer Portals
- Core Architecture: Portal First; Built On top of broken pipelines
- Interface: Custom UI development & maintenance
- Impact: No impact on release velocity; as they rely on the same fragmented tools
Facets Orchestration Framework
- Core Architecture: Contracts First; Fixes broken pipelines
- Interface: Use what you like (headless, portals, IDE)
- Release Velocity: Orchestration Engine, improve release velocity by 5X
True Developer Autonomy
Self-Service Without Limits in software delivery (Deploy, Operate & Monitor)
Select Project Type
From the Pre-approved module library
Drag & Drop
Configure and connect components
Deploy
Deploy on to environments in a self-service manner
Manage
Operate on the entire environment lifecycle
Developer Tasks
Declare architectural intents, not raise tickets
Self-serve environment creation
Compare configuration differences proactively
Self-serve resource scaling with guardrails
Use preferred DevEx: portal, cli or modern IDEs
Governance by Design, Not Compromise
Built-in Guardrails
Security Baseline
Encryption, monitoring, compliance automatically included
Environment Policies
Different rules for dev/staging/production
Cost Controls
Spending limits and auto-shutdown for non-production
AI-Enhanced Productivity
Organizational context enhances developer productivity
How Facets builds Context
The orchestrator builds organizational context from:
How AI uses the Context
Natural Language Operations
ā Created staging-payment-v2 environment āāā PostgreSQL (medium, backup enabled) āāā Redis cluster (small, no persistence) āāā Load balancer with SSL āāā Monitoring and logging configured āāā Estimated cost: $247/month
"We empowered teams with workflow ownership using Facets. Developer autonomy transformed our entire delivery process and everything clicked perfectly."
