You might want to check https://loopback.cloud if you’re interested in managed k8s with customized infra on Hetzner. They‘re a German company specialized in that.

Spoiler: Shameless plug, but might be helpful for people I understand most of the commentators, as well as OP, are probably looking to not spend too much time and money on their hosting infra. While that makes sense in the beginning, there

At https://www.ayedo.de we provide managed containers on top of Hetzner for a flat fee per node and it's managed by actual people, not just click-ops you need to take care for yourself eventually.

I use Polycrate [1] in conjunction with Ansible to create complex / monolithic systems with Docker / Swarm and to create a simpler interface for the end user than docker compose provides. [1] https://docs.polycrate.io

My company [1] offers this as a managed services and we’re very happy with hetzners offerings for the K8s ecosystem. Fairly easy to use a variety of tools to get K8s up and running reliably (we roll our own solution though) [1] https:&#x2F

Interesting perspective that I’d like to challenge. Many European companies now face a future in which they’re banned from using US cloud services due to GDPR. Fixing that problem seems like having high impact.

I've been working in the field - and for VW specifically - for the past couple of years and am constantly amazed by how far they are actually behind in terms of software and overall technical infrastructure. Especially germans are too

They didn’t call it secure as per your initial quote. They say it is designed to have a small attack surface. You missed to acknowledge that security means different things for different contexts. Besides, it’s a free offering, clearing iss

Funny part is that „competent generalists“ (those Brent-style types) are very rare and most technology needs to be designed for incompetent specialists. Also funny is that these generalists typically build as if everyone has their own skill

As someone building software for a living I fully agree with your decision to not go full OSS. It’s always a hefty discussion but I feel most of the people only exist on the receiving end of software and do not have to worry how a license

Starting your day with „what’s your priority today“ is the basis of many engineering orgs these days. Most of the time it’s not a lack of planning but a desire to overplan that leads to these daily introspectives.

This comment made me flip. Just signed up for a 10 year archive account. Never used pinboard but frequently enjoy and admire the whole story and the level of dedication that flows into it. It’s like watching the story of „UP“ (the movie) ha

Second that. Lame old people skills are the single most effective thing I’ve learned as a founder. Nothing else made a real difference.

It’s funny that your questions all imply that this should be a „solved“ problem while you can’t even grasp the complexity of reliably serving arbitrary software applications to arbitrary consumers. All that „legacy burden“ isn’t so legacy a
