Streamline Cloud Infrastructure Workflows with Lucid Software
In today’s fast-paced world, cloud and DevOps teams are constantly under pressure to deliver more, faster. Whether they’re tasked with maintaining legacy systems, developing new ones, or meeting the ever-growing demands from business units, IT departments often find themselves struggling to keep up with the increasing workload. Lucid Software’s Cloud Accelerator is designed specifically to address this challenge by removing the barriers that slow down critical infrastructure work.
Powered by Lucid’s Visual Collaboration Suite, the Cloud Accelerator helps teams avoid the time-consuming tasks of manually updating diagrams, navigating outdated documentation, or trying to explain cloud architecture to non-technical stakeholders. Instead, it automatically generates visual documentation, integrates seamlessly with existing tools, and allows for the creation of customizable templates that make complex cloud deployments repeatable. This not only saves hours of work but also increases visibility into projects for leadership, helping teams stay on track and focused.
For DevOps teams, velocity is key. The speed at which they can design and implement cloud systems directly impacts how quickly products are shipped and how efficiently teams can adapt to changing needs. Lucid’s Cloud Accelerator is built to speed up the entire cloud infrastructure planning process by automatically generating accurate diagrams and pulling cloud data directly from cloud providers. Teams can now spend less time on manual updates and more time on high-priority tasks, ensuring that the planning phase is both faster and more accurate. Integration with tools like Jira helps teams manage their tasks and designs in a single, streamlined platform.
Additionally, the Cloud Accelerator makes it easier to kickstart new projects by allowing leaders to create reusable blueprints that define project templates and processes. Whether it’s for cost-saving initiatives or modernization projects, the accelerator ensures consistency across teams by providing pre-built templates, such as project charters, design documents, and current infrastructure states. With the asset builder feature, teams can also reuse components across multiple diagrams, ensuring that updates to components—like security enhancements—automatically propagate through all diagrams that reference them, streamlining the process across different teams and projects.
