Can't help but feel that their focus on moving all operation insights into gitlab itself will not be as successful as they want it to be (as far as I read, their goal was to replace their operations and monitoring tools with gitlab itself[1]). I've worked with the ultimate edition for a year and the kubernetes integration is nowhere close to the insight you would get from google, amazon or azure in terms of insight and integration with ops-land. I wish all these hours were spent on improving the developer lifecycle instead.
I can understand how their huge success of "built-in CI" quickly leads to "built-in XYZ", but competing with github that lets other companies solve developer/ci problems via marketplace (and now CI via their new terraform actions) may lead to loosing market-leader [my take on their product] position for a code/test/review/merge ecosystem.
