StackStorm

Purpose: StackStorm is a platform for integration and automation across services and tools, with a focus on taking actions in response to events.
Automation model: Rules map triggers to actions or workflows, and workflows combine actions into multi-step automations.
Integrations: Sensors and actions connect external systems; examples listed include webhooks, SSH, REST calls, OpenStack, Docker, Puppet, Sensu and JIRA.
Integration packs: StackStorm Exchange offers ready-made integration packs, and users can create and share their own packs.
Audit trail: Action executions are recorded with triggering context and results, and audit logs can integrate with Logstash, Splunk, statsd and syslog.
Access control: Role based access control lets administrators limit users’ access and operations, and is available in StackStorm Open Source since version 3.4.
Security reporting: The project asks vulnerability reporters to use its private mailing list and says it acknowledges reports within 48 hours or less.
Deployment: StackStorm is distributed as Linux RPMs and Debs and as Docker images; its documentation also describes Vagrant/OVA, Ansible, Puppet and Kubernetes deployment options.
Supported operating systems: The documentation says StackStorm supports 64-bit Ubuntu and RHEL/RockyLinux/CentOS Linux distributions, and does not support other Linux distributions.
Platform limits: The documentation says Windows and Apple OSX are among platforms without official support.
User interface and API: StackStorm provides a Web UI, a CLI client, a full REST API and Python client bindings.
Use cases: The maker lists automated remediation, continuous deployment, ChatOps and automated security response as common applications.
