Platform Engineering Brings Multicloud Support To Its Formae Infrastructure-As-Code Platform

siliconANGLE, Wednesday, January 28th, 2026

Infrastructure-as-code startup Platform Engineering Labs Inc. today announced a big update to its open-source formae platform, adding beta support for four new public clouds as it looks to expand its influence beyond Amazon Web Services environments.

Platform Engineering Labs debuted formae in October, saying it's trying to modernize the IaC world. That refers to the practice of managing and provisioning information technology infrastructure such as compute and storage resources using machine-readable definition files.

IaC eliminates the need for cloud platform engineers to spend hours manually adjusting all kinds of settings in their cloud environments, providing a way to automate the setup of servers, networks and other resources, and dramatically speed up application deployment times.
