Self-service cloud environment management platform for infrastructure-as-code teams

DevopsWebFreemium

Overview

env0 is a cloud environment management platform that gives engineering teams a self-service interface for deploying and managing infrastructure-as-code environments using Terraform, OpenTofu, Pulumi, and other IaC frameworks. It provides a centralized dashboard for environment lifecycle management, cost tracking, drift detection, and policy enforcement, enabling developers to spin up and destroy environments without requiring direct cloud access.

Use Cases

  • •Enabling developers to self-serve ephemeral environments for feature branches without cloud access
  • •Managing the full lifecycle of Terraform and OpenTofu environments from a central dashboard
  • •Enforcing cost controls by setting budget limits and automatically destroying idle environments
  • •Detecting infrastructure drift between the deployed state and the IaC definition
  • •Running approval workflows before applying infrastructure changes in production
  • •Tracking cloud spending per environment, team, and project

Features

  • •Self-service environment provisioning
  • •Terraform, OpenTofu, and Pulumi support
  • •Environment cost tracking and budget limits
  • •Drift detection
  • •Approval workflows
  • •TTL-based automatic environment teardown
  • •Role-based access control
  • •Environment templates
  • •Audit logging
  • •CI/CD integration
  • •Multi-cloud support

Getting Started

  1. 1Sign up for a free env0 account at env0.com
  2. 2Connect your cloud provider (AWS, GCP, or Azure) using the guided credentials setup
  3. 3Connect your Git repository containing your Terraform or Pulumi code
  4. 4Create an environment template pointing to your IaC module
  5. 5Deploy your first environment using the self-service dashboard and review the cost estimate

Practical Notes

  • •Free tier is limited to a small number of environments and users; teams require a paid plan
  • •env0 does not manage cloud credentials directly — it requires you to supply IAM roles or service account keys
  • •Drift detection runs on a schedule rather than in real time; immediate drift may not be surfaced instantly
  • •The platform adds an orchestration layer on top of Terraform — complex custom provider configurations may need additional testing
