Feature Matrix — Stella Ops Suite

(rev 5.1 · 16 Jan 2026)

Looking for a quick read? Check key-features.md for the short capability cards; this matrix keeps full tier-by-tier detail.

Product Evolution

Stella Ops Suite is now a centralized, auditable release control plane for non-Kubernetes container estates. The platform combines release orchestration with security decisioning as a gate.

  • Release orchestration — UI-driven promotion (Dev → Stage → Prod), approvals, policy gates, rollbacks
  • Security decisioning as a gate — Scan on build, evaluate on release, re-evaluate on CVE updates
  • OCI-digest-first releases — Immutable digest-based release identity
  • Evidence packets — Every release decision is cryptographically signed and stored

Competitive Moat Features

These differentiators are available across all plans.

Capability Notes
Signed Replayable Risk Verdicts Core differentiator
Decision Capsules Audit-grade evidence bundles
VEX Decisioning Engine Trust lattice + conflict resolution
Reachability with Portable Proofs Three-layer analysis
Smart-Diff (Semantic Risk Delta) Material change detection
Unknowns as First-Class State Uncertainty budgets
Deterministic Replay stella replay srm.yaml
Non-Kubernetes First-Class Docker/Compose/ECS/Nomad targets
Digest-First Release Identity Immutable releases

Release Orchestration (Planned)

Release orchestration capabilities are planned for implementation.
