Tangent but: I sometimes feel like programs that just work like this don't get traction because they don't provoke as much discussion, search volume, etc. A complex mess that needs to be constantly babysat creates a cottage industry around it and gets discussed a lot, but something that works is like the quiet kid who sits in the corner and gets A's and that everyone ignores
Kubernetes is today's poster child for this. The Hashicorp stack can do just about all the same things, but it just works so there's no cottage industry of consultants and no market for as-a-service implementations. Why promote something like that?
