Looks interesting. How do the infrastructure layer features (deployment, cloud resource management) compare to the open source alternatives? If I am already using Kubernetes and terraform, would it still make sense for me to build applications on Encore?
- eandre 6y agoCurrently Encore deploys to Kubernetes, and uses Terraform under the hood to provision the infrastructure. Over time we'll add much more flexibility in how you deploy the application and the infrastructure we support. It's not another infrastructure offering but rather a new developer experience for building backend applications and distributed systems. The idea is to get the developer feedback loop to be about building your product and writing business logic. Encore then uses static analysis to understand what your application does, the different backend services involved, and the infrastructure you need. It can then provision all the infrastructure, servers, databases, and hook everything together.
