About OpenFactory

Full lifecycle OS management

OpenFactory gives teams one platform to build, ship, verify, and retire custom Linux systems without losing control of the underlying infrastructure.

Four stages. One operating model.

01

Build

Create reproducible Linux images with your packages, security hardening, and compliance profile baked in.

02

Deploy

Roll updates across devices and environments with staged releases, health checks, and rollback paths.

03

Verify

Track drift, test results, and audit evidence continuously instead of rebuilding compliance by hand.

04

Retire

Decommission endpoints cleanly with inventory updates, wipe workflows, and traceable records.

Built for controlled infrastructure

The platform is opinionated in the right places: immutable images, repeatable build inputs, and explicit fleet management instead of one-off shell scripts.

  • Linux image creation for Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, openSUSE, and scenario-specific builds
  • Fleet-safe rollout controls for edge devices, desktops, servers, and regulated environments
  • Integrated testing, compliance evidence, and recovery paths

From idea to deployed image

A typical workflow is short, deterministic, and easy to review.

# Install the CLI
curl -fsSL https://openfactory.tech/install | bash

# Build a custom OS image
openfactory build --base ubuntu-24.04 --features docker,ssh,monitoring

# Deploy to your fleet
openfactory deploy --fleet production --strategy canary

# Verify compliance
openfactory verify --standard gxp

ServiceNow Integration

Enterprise lifecycle integration

OpenFactory integrates with ServiceNow across six deployment stages. Change Requests gate production rollouts, Configuration Items track every device, and drift detection opens incidents automatically — with a cryptographic evidence trail at each step.

01

Recipe & Build

Change Management

Change Request auto-created with recipe, SBOM, and risk assessment.

02

Verify & Attest

GRC

Test evidence and cryptographic attestation chain pushed to GRC.

03

Staged Rollout

Change Management

Deployment gated on Change Request approval with audited rollback.

04

Fleet CMDB Sync

CMDB

Every device registered as a Configuration Item with build lineage.

05

Continuous Verify

Event Management

Drift, attestation, and CVE events streamed in real time.

06

Incident & Remediate

Incident Management

P1–P4 incidents auto-created and linked to the CI and originating CR.

Audit-ready from day one

Each integration hook is mapped to a specific regulatory control so evidence is collected as a byproduct of normal operations.

Need this inside your own environment?

OpenFactory Enterprise is designed for organizations that need air-gapped deployments, identity integration, and full ownership of build infrastructure.
