I think before you put an app on the public Internet for people to consume, you should be comfortable with everything you listed plus more. You might not be doing it for the app at hand, but you should know it at least. Especially if you're doing a solo founder thing, you might be having to implement all of these things before you can afford ops. If you're deploying services without some of the knowledge in your list, too, you're setting yourself up for trouble.
It's not an insurmountable barrier, for sure. Knowing how to operate your own code is a great feeling.
- adgar 14y agoYou do realize that it's a 6-figure investment to hire an engineer comfortable with all of those things plus more to deploy a multihomed setup?
