Our take

HashiCorp's software streamlines cloud operations for companies' teams, offering open-source solutions to facilitate cloud migration and utilization. Additionally, the company provides commercial versions of its tools, catering to businesses that prefer managed services.

With a pay-per-hour pricing model and adaptable products, HashiCorp enables companies to construct infrastructure spanning legacy systems, private clouds, and multiple cloud providers. its flagship product, Terraform, allows developers to create consistent rules, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing costs.

In a landscape increasingly reliant on AI and automation, HashiCorp simplifies the intricate architecture of data centre management, ensuring a rising demand for its services. The company was acquired by IBM in 2024, for which HashiCorp will integrate its hybrid cloud and AI software. In turn, Hashicorp will utilise IBM's worldwide reach and R&D opportunities to grow its software capabilities and market share.
