REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Spacelift, the infrastructure orchestration company, today announced it has been named a finalist in SiliconANGLE's 2026 TechForward Awards in the AI-Driven Cloud Infrastructure category.

Spacelift applies the same controls to AI-assisted infrastructure that govern traditional IaC pipelines: policy-as-code through Open Policy Agent, role-based access control, approval gates, drift detection, and a complete audit history of what ran and who changed it.

"AI changed how fast developers ask for infrastructure, and platform teams absorbed all of it," said Pawel Hytry, chief executive officer and co-founder of Spacelift. "Speed only helps if policy, approvals, and an audit trail arrive with it. That's what we've built for."
