What We Do

Arganteal provides for the automated deployment of the full stack allowing reduction of deployment labor by up to 90%. Arganteal’s proven new solution starts with the scripting languages you already use to create a custom centralized framework that will sync all your legacy tools together. This custom framework means streamlined deployments, easier transfers, and freedom from script errors and missed deployment steps. Our patented automation tool supports DevOps continuing operations by using reusable Libraries, machine learning and simplified Workflows. With Arganteal ADepT you can further automate technologies to make them run sequentially and in parallel to fully provision AWS or Azure with the required infrastructure, hardening, and Enterprise Application in a fraction of the time it takes a team of engineers. In fact, Arganteal ADepT can replace 8 hours of deployment engineering with 1 hour of automation. Combine our automation technology with our professional services offerings for a complete end to end deployment solution. Every cloud needs this silver lining.
