Spinnaker

More of a deployment tool (rather than an infrastructure creation tool like terraform).
Spinnaker will be deploying updated VMs or Containers to an existing environment.
Instead of doing "hacky terraform" blue/green deploys (onetwo) or having to write a buncha "glue code" (one).

Can deploy to AWS or Kubernetes

Pipelines made of Stages
Stages can be types [infra, external, testing, control flow]
Also support for Triggers, Notifications, Expressions, Version Control and Auditing.
