Ask HN: Are cloud services too complicated and clunky?
Hi,
I was wondering of solving this problem for startups and non technical founders of helping them get cloud services running without having little to no knowledge. Simple interface, simple APIs and documentation and tutorials. Everything is just simpler.
IMO it’s what I needed when I first started devleopment and working on startups and I think this problem persists but not much choice out there.

- Mrirazak1 4y agoI agree. I’ve been search and searching and there isn’t a good enough solution for a sorta no-code one or little to no code one.
- Jugurtha 4y agoThat'd be an abstraction on top of other abstractions. Having worked on an MLOps platform that had to work with different cloud providers... GCP was a breeze to work with, AWS was a clusterfuck of a motherfucking mess, Azure didn't click and was immemorable, which could be a good sign.
