Arfni v1.0.0 Release Notes
"Redefining Infrastructure Management”
We're excited to announce the first official release ofArfni!
Build complex infrastructure with an intuitive GUI — from design to deployment, all in one seamless flow.
What is Arfni?
Arfni is an open-source deployment automation platform that simplifies complex infrastructure management with an intuitive GUI. Simply drag and drop components, fill in the configuration forms, and Arfni automatically generates the necessary files — handling everything from design and deployment to monitoring in one unified workflow.
Key Features
1. Intuitive Drag-and-Drop Infrastructure Design
Design your infrastructure visually with a React Flow-based GUI. Simply drag and drop service blocks including web servers, backends, proxies, caches, and message brokers.
- Visualize service dependencies through node connections
Configure ports, volumes, environment variables, and secrets in the right-side properties panel - Real-time synchronization generates deployment-ready configurations instantly
2. Automatic stack.yaml Generation
Your canvas design is automatically converted into a standardized declarative file (stack.yaml).
- Automatic conversion of node configurations to YAML structure
- Standard format ready for CLI execution
3. Automated Deployment with Go-based CLI Engine
Arfni's core engine interprets stack.yaml and automatically deploys to Docker and EC2 environments.
- **Local:**Instant execution with Docker Compose
- Remote: Automated EC2 deployment via SSH
- Automatic generation of environment-specific Compose files and execution of build/up commands
- For EC2: artifact upload via SCP followed by remote execution
4. AI-Powered EC2 Instance Recommendations and Cost Estimation
Leveraging OpenAI API, Arfni recommends optimized EC2 instances and estimates costs for your project.
- Instance type recommendations based on workload analysis
- Automatic calculation of estimated monthly operating costs
- Cost-efficient infrastructure configuration guidance
Why Arfni?
The Problem
- Each component (Docker, databases, message brokers, etc.) requires different configuration methods, making setup complex and hard to reproduce
- Manual configuration of environment files and network settings leads to inconsistent results and quality variation across teams
- Switching between local, server, and cloud environments requires repetitive setup, reducing development productivity
Arfni's Solution
- Intuitive GUI-based design minimizes the learning curve
- Declarative files ensure reproducible and consistent infrastructure configuration
- Unified deployment automation from local to cloud environments
