SuperPlane provides an open-source DevOps control plane for defining and executing event-driven workflows across existing tools like Git, CI/CD, observability, and incident response systems. It targets engineers and DevOps teams seeking to centralize operational intent and automate complex, multi-system processes triggered by real-time events, offering a unified interface for design, management, and inspection.

How It Works

SuperPlane models workflows as directed graphs called "Canvases," composed of reusable "Components" that perform specific actions. These workflows are initiated by incoming events such as pushes, deploy events, alerts, schedules, or webhooks, with the event payload serving as input. The system executes the graph, tracks state, and provides visibility into runs, history, and debugging through a UI and CLI, enabling event-driven automation and shared operational context.

Quick Start & Requirements

To run the latest demo:

1. docker pull ghcr.io/superplanehq/superplane-demo:stable
