use that as your requirements for an open source or at least vendor-neutral equivalent My clients are all expending far too much energy trying to be cloud vendor neutral with the engineering capacity of your average non-tech large mid-market company. It's killing productivity. They went from VMWare in the data center and open source DevOps tooling to multi-cloud vendor-agnostic container-orchestration all in the name of "cloud but not with vendor-lock in". Meanwhile they could be actually achieving business objectives with these "seductive" managed services. Here's one simple example, one client is spending about $250,000/yr on what could be accomplished with AWS Cognito for $250/month. But "no", they say, "then we'd be locked in to AWS". I just can't.
