The Cursor Moment for DevOps
In the past decade, DevOps has evolved from Chef scripts and ClickOps to a highly dynamic environment merging infrastructure as code, Kubernetes, and constant ecosystem change into a complex mess. We all know the pain of endless Kubernetes upgrades, YAML sprawl, and scary Terraform applies. Moreover, current AI tooling lacks the context and deep infra integration to properly solve it without incurring risk.
With our latest release, we're bringing DevOps into the AI era. Leveraging our custom-built unified GitOps platform as the RAG engine to a full AI workflow, we're finally able to provide an experience informed by the current state of your infrastructure, and provide the enterprise guardrails necessary for your review and approval workflows.
Why DevOps Needs AI
Every platform team knows the pain:
- Kubernetes upgrades that risk breaking workloads
- YAML sprawl with endless drift and diffs
- Reactive firefighting when incidents hit at 2 a.m.
- Security and compliance gaps that slip through the cracks
- Inability to comprehend the full risk associated with an infrastructure change
These problems aren’t just technical debt—they’re bottlenecks that slow down developer velocity and require serious technical innovation to solve.
Plural was built to automate Kubernetes lifecycle management. With this release, we’re going further: embedding AI directly into GitOps workflows so DevOps can be a true force multiplier for an organization.
What’s New in Plural
We’re not just bolting AI onto dashboards. We’ve rethought the DevOps experience from the ground up:
- AI-Powered Troubleshooting → Find root cause across logs, metrics, and configs without drowning in dashboards, and auto-generate pull requests to fix them using your GitOps source of truth.
- Query & Understand Your Infrastructure in Natural Language → Ask questions about your infrastructure in plain English instead of digging through Terraform, YAML or consoles.
- Autonomous Upgrade Assistant → Orchestrate even the hardest Kubernetes upgrades with built-in guardrails.
- Powerful Agentic Workflows → Use all the information above to provide agentic workflows for modifying infrastructure managed via GitOps. Ask Plural to “double the size of my production database" and the combination of our semantic index and ability to do deep RAG against your infra and code will guide the AI to make the necessary change and issue a PR for you to review.
This isn’t “AI for the sake of AI.” It's deeply integrated with a GitOps engine custom-built for an AI era, and capable of informing any mainstream LLM of exactly what needs to be done.
Why This Matters
Infrastructure is inherently slow-moving. The cost of development is usually overwhelmed by the cost of validation and the risk associated with change. For any solution to succeed in this space it needs to be sensitive to the unique challenges associated with infrastructure engineering. The table stakes are:
- Clear Review and Approval - no change at the infra layer can be made unauditably and without human approval
- Deep Context - everything in infra is machine-generated and private, you can't just chat your way to success
- Secure by default - the permission scope of any AI cannot exceed the user driving it
Everything built at Plural is informed by years of Kubernetes expertise and battle-worn reliability engineering knowledge. We've integrated into similarly battle-tested workflows.
We believe the future of DevOps is as a highly leveraged enabler of an entire org, with AI augmentation driving a step change in productivity.
