SDK Reference

The Fractal Cloud SDK provides programmatic access to define, compose, and deploy infrastructure using code. It allows you to build reusable components, automate complex workflows, and integrate Fractal Cloud into your internal tools, CI/CD pipelines, and GitOps processes. By expressing infrastructure as code, you can version it alongside your application code, test it in lower environments, and apply the same software engineering practices you use for application development.

This reference documents the SDK's classes, methods, configuration options, and patterns. You'll find detailed information on every component type supported by Fractal Cloud. This includes API gateways like Ambassador or Ocelot, Azure services (CDN, Relay, Service Bus, Storage, Web Apps), Kubernetes clusters with their workloads, databases like Postgres, plus observability solutions like Elasticsearch, Jaeger, Kafka, and Prometheus. Each component reference includes constructor parameters, method signatures, code examples, and explanations of how components interact with each other.

The SDK is designed for infrastructure engineers, platform teams, and DevOps professionals who need fine-grained control plus repeatability. Use the SDK when you want to encode organizational best practices into reusable modules, deploy infrastructure from code reviews, or manage large-scale setups where manual operations don't scale. This reference serves as your comprehensive guide to building production-ready infrastructure with Fractal Cloud programmatically.
