This is unfortunate because a couple of attempts get _so close_.
You've got public docker repositories, terraform, aws service catalog (or cloudformation), all of which could fill this gap directly or via their own services if they had a slightly more beginner-accessible workflow...
- hsn915 5y agoHow do any of these things help? "docker repositories, terraform, aws service catalog (or cloudformation)" These are all part of the problem, and can never be the solution.
- notreallyserio 5y agoWhat is the problem they are a part of, and what makes them part of that problem? They don't seem problematic to me.
- hsn915 5y agoYou can't solve problems of complexity by piling on more and more layers. Layers need to be collapsed
- rytill 5y agoCitation needed.
- notreallyserio 5y agoTerraform is roughly the equivalent to a Makefile. If anything it reduces complexity by encouraging operations to be run in a reproducible and testable fashion. Is it a layer? Sure, but little more than a shell script is a layer.
