What is Stackstorm ?

==============

StackStorm is a powerful open-source event-driven automation platform written in Python with a mission to solve modern development, operations and system integration challenges.

StackStorm is like IFTTT (If-This-Than-That) tool for DevOps and Infrastructure. Suppose, if you don't want to wait for events, then youcan schedule tasks to run like cron jobs. We can also execute tasks manually using StackStorm web UI, CLI and API’s.
