en.Wedoany.com Reported - Quali has announced a major upgrade to its intelligent infrastructure management platform Torque, positioning it as a unified intelligent control plane spanning bare metal, multi-cloud, GPU, and AI environments. It aims to replace fragmented management with unified governance and shift from reactive operations to continuous intelligence.
Traditional cloud management portals and container orchestration tools typically manage only isolated resource types. Without requiring enterprises to replace existing tools, Torque supports Terraform, OpenTofu, Ansible, Helm, Kubernetes, CloudFormation, and all major Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and configuration formats, standardizing automation workflows into reusable building blocks. Anyone within an organization can discover, govern, cost, and operate these building blocks. For teams preferring no-code operations, Torque's GenAI-driven environment designer automatically converts natural language prompts into production-ready infrastructure as code, ensuring infrastructure code is always present and auditable.
The core difference between Torque and earlier infrastructure tools lies in its awareness of overall environment context, including not only what is running but also ownership, purpose, cost, operational status, and optimization direction. This context makes governance actionable, with cost intelligence measured based on outcomes rather than bills.
Lior Koriat, CEO of Quali, stated that every enterprise managing AI infrastructure today faces common issues of fragmented environment configuration and insufficient visibility. Torque does not add another management layer but integrates as an intelligent layer, making all other tools in the stack governable, measurable, and aligned with outcomes.
Key platform capabilities of this upgrade include: Continuous Discovery and Auto-Codification, where Torque scans cloud accounts, on-premises systems, and Git repositories to identify all deployed resources and convert real-time configurations into governance code; Outcome-Linked Cost Governance, which shifts cost control to the configuration moment by tagging owners, teams, and business purposes during environment creation, making infrastructure spending traceable to the outcomes it supports; Continuous Drift Detection and Remediation, where the platform continuously compares real-time environments with expected configurations, automatically generating alerts and initiating remediation; Full Environment Context and Intelligent Optimization, where Torque maintains resource composition, ownership, cost history, usage patterns, and health status for each active environment, driving optimization recommendations and anomaly detection; Governance for Sovereign AI and Regulated Deployments, providing policy enforcement, data residency controls, and complete audit trails; Governed Infrastructure for Autonomous AI Agents, where Torque, through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, allows compatible agents to configure environments, query status, and trigger lifecycle workflows within policy boundaries; and Full-Stack Infrastructure Management, managing the entire infrastructure spectrum from bare metal to cloud via a single control panel, covering bare metal as a service, traditional CPU workloads, virtual machines, containerized applications, GPU clusters, and cloud-native AI environments.
Torque is built on Quali's Stack Automation foundation. Stack Automation is an AI infrastructure operations platform co-developed with Cisco and announced at Cisco Live 2026. Torque extends platform intelligence to the broader enterprise market, covering all vendors, all clouds, and all infrastructure stacks.
Quali is a leader in AI infrastructure management and Environment as a Service (EaS) automation. Torque was named a representative vendor in the Gartner Market Guide for AI Assistants for Infrastructure as Code (March 2026). Quali has approximately 100 enterprise customers globally, supporting over 40,000 environment launches per month, with headquarters in Austin, Texas.
