Nitric

Nitric is an open source universal backend framework that provides infrastructure from code and pluggable deployment automation. It allows developers to declare infrastructure requirements in code for common cloud resources and provides a convenient interface to interact with them.

Key benefits of Nitric include:

• Effortless infrastructure from code: Use code to declare infrastructure requirements and get deployment automation from customizable plugins. This simplifies provisioning and managing cloud resources.

• Cloud portability: Nitric makes applications portable across cloud providers, unlocking access to the best cloud features without vendor lock-in. It supports AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure out of the box.

• Local development: Fine tune your application offline from your first commit. Prototype, develop and test your application without incurring cloud costs.

• Simplified security: Application security is made simple with declarative resource access that is automatically synced with deployment automation.

• Intuitive APIs: Common tasks are made intuitive and easy, without limiting fine-grained control when needed.

• Extensible automation: Use existing Nitric plugins or build custom ones. Nitric enhances automation tools like Terraform, Pulumi and others.

Nitric supports key cloud resources like APIs, storage, databases, messaging, and more. It provides a consistent developer experience for working with these resources across different cloud providers.

The framework aims to streamline backend development by abstracting away infrastructure complexities, while still giving developers full control when needed. This allows teams to focus more on building application logic rather than managing cloud infrastructure.
