Fractal Cloud
When Compliance Becomes Architecture

When Compliance Becomes Architecture

Introduction

NIS2 and DORA usually get discussed as paperwork and lawyer territory. But if you actually read them, these obligations translate directly into architecture constraints. The mandate for an "exit strategy" actually means your infrastructure must be portable. The strict 24-to-72 hour incident reporting windows (NIS2) mean you can't waste days mapping the blast radius; your system inventory needs to be instantly queryable. And the requirement for "operational resilience" means a single component failure must be contained before it cascades into a disaster.In this session we set the compliance side aside and look at the engineering problems these rules actually create. For each one we see where the constraint bites, why it is hard to solve, and how you solve it in practice using Fractal Cloud as a concrete example.

Cloud Architecture Patterns on Fractal Cloud, From Pattern to Production in Minutes

You know the patterns. You've drawn them on whiteboards dozens of times.But between the pattern and a production-ready environment, there's always the painful part: tickets, YAML, manual dependencies.In this Fractal Sprint, we show how the most common cloud architecture patterns like CQRS, Saga Pattern, Event-Driven Architecture and more become real. No slides about how they should work. We'll show how they do work, provisioned live, with governance and security already built in.For Devs who build. For Ops who govern. For teams who want to stop reinventing the wheel every time.

Webinars

Create a Resource Group

Resource Groups help organizations structure cloud-agnostic infrastructure with clear ownership and access control across hyperscalers, local cloud providers, and on-prem environments.Whether resources are organized by customer, environment, project, or business unit, Resource Groups provide the governance layer for managing Fractals and Live Systems at scale.This walkthrough shows how to create your first Resource Group in just a few clicks.

Video Tutorials

Create an Environment

Environments represent the connection between Fractal Cloud and cloud-agnostic infrastructure across hyperscalers, local cloud providers, and on-prem environments.They define where Live Systems are deployed and allow teams to target specific cloud accounts, projects, clusters, or infrastructure domains through a consistent governance model.By associating Environments with Resource Groups, organizations can control workload placement while maintaining clear governance boundaries.This walkthrough shows how to create your first Environment and prepare it for cloud connectivity.
