What is Nitric?
Nitric is a comprehensive development platform that streamlines application deployment and backend infrastructure management. The platform offers two main components: Suga for instant application deployment with visual infrastructure tools, and the Nitric Framework for building backends with infrastructure-as-code capabilities.
Developers can deploy applications built with popular frameworks like Django, Node.js, and Laravel in sub-10-second deployments while benefiting from built-in security features and real-time observability. The infrastructure-from-code approach allows defining cloud resources directly within application code, which can then be deployed to major cloud providers including AWS, Google Cloud Platform, and Microsoft Azure.
