Distelli

Distelli was a Seattle-based DevOps and application-deployment company founded in 2013 by Rahul Singh and backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). It offered a SaaS platform and command-line tooling for building, deploying, and managing applications across servers and cloud infrastructure, later adding a Docker container pipeline and a Kubernetes (K8s) dashboard for managing container clusters. Puppet acquired Distelli in September 2017 and rebranded its products — the VM/CI-CD dashboard became Puppet Pipelines for Applications and the Kubernetes dashboard became Puppet Pipelines for Containers. The standalone Distelli company, product, and API no longer operate: the distelli.com domain is parked and the Distelli GitHub organization is archived and explicitly "no longer supported nor actively maintained." This profile is retained as a historical portfolio-company record (a16z) in the API Evangelist network.

Distelli is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, DevOps, Deployment, Continuous Delivery, and Containers.
