Definitely interesting material. I realized, especially in last few years, there is an increased interest on moving away from propriety clouds/PaaS to K8s or even to bare metal, primarily driven by high prices and also interest of having more control.
At Ubicloud, we are attacking the same problem, though from a different angle. We are building an open-source alternative to AWS. You can host it yourself or use our managed services (which are 3x-10x more affordable than comparable services). We already built some primitives such as VMs, PostgreSQL, private networking, load balancers and also working on K8s.
I have a question to HN crowd; which primitives are required to run your workloads? It seems the OP's list consists of Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch, Secret Manager, Logging/Monitoring, Ingress and Service Mesh. I wonder if this is representative of typical requirements to run HN crowd's workloads.
