Humanitec Features

Humanitec uses the Score specification, an open-source standard for describing workload resource requirements in a platform-agnostic way. Developers declare what their workload needs (containers, ports, volumes, dependencies) and Humanitec translates this into environment-specific configurations.

Humanitec automates environment provisioning across development, staging, and production. It creates isolated environments per developer or feature branch, with dynamic resource allocation. Environments are automatically cleaned up when no longer needed.

Platform teams define golden path templates that encapsulate organizational best practices. Developers can create new services or environments through a self-service catalog with approved configurations, reducing decision fatigue and enforcing standards.

Humanitec manages configuration across environments, handling environment-specific variables, secrets, and resource bindings. The platform ensures configurations are consistent and secure across all environments.
