How it started

Gruntwork originally started out as two traditional DevOps consulting companies by Jim Brikman and Josh Padnick.

When Jim and Josh met in 2015, they realized that they kept re-implementing the same solution with every client, and decided to create a better way to establish
best-practices infrastructure.

In 2016, after working with a number of clients and building up a library of reusable code, templates, and best practices, they merged the two companies together into Gruntwork.

How it's going

Today, Gruntwork is bootstrapped, profitable, and run by a distributed team that deeply cares about its craft.

Their mission is to make world-class AWS DevOps practices accessible to those who want to accelerate their cloud deployments and avoid reinventing the wheel.

Gruntwork is the open-source maintainer for Terragrunt, the default choice for engineers who want to skip the boilerplate, and the Go library Terratest, the de facto way to write integration tests for infrastructure code.

The Technology

Customers look to Gruntwork to share the best way to launch on AWS. The Gruntwork team is obsessed with discovering AWS and Terraform best practices, and then codifying them as repeatable patterns that customers
can pull off the shelf.

They create and maintain reusable modules for various AWS infrastructure (e.g, EKS, ECS, RDS, VPC, Lambda, EC2, S3, ElastiCache, etc), using standard tooling (e.g., Terraform, Go, Python, Bash, Docker, Packer, etc.)

Jim Brikman of Gruntwork was the top infrastructure engineer during my tenure at LinkedIn, so I already knew what to expect. It was fantastic to see how they delivered our awesome AWS + Terraform infrastructure on time and well under budget.

The advice, training and ongoing support from the Gruntwork team has been excellent. We are just at the start of a long journey where our infrastructure needs will no doubt evolve over time and confident that Gruntwork will be a trusted partner along the way. In summary, very highly recommended.
