Products that do what Compose-to-Cloud Pulumi Providers for AWS, GCP, and Azure does
Hi HN, These are three FOSS Pulumi providers (defang-aws, defang-gcp, defang-azure) that take a Docker Compose-like project and provision it as real infrastructure to the respective cloud: VPC, subnets, load balancers, serverless containers (ECS Fargate, Cloud Run, Container App), builds, managed PostgreSQL, Redis, LLMs, and public/private DNS. Develop once, deploy anywhere: all three providers expose the same Compose-shaped surface. They contain the same Pulumi resources: Project, Build, Service, Postgres, Redis, LLM. Each service in the Compose services map gets provisioned as one of…

We built it from the ground up, minimal Linux based operating system (written in go and rust), messaging system written in rust and infrastructure as code support (terraform and pulumi) There is even a dashboard, and a playground UI to manage it (that you can even run yourself) . Beautifully decentralized, you have full control of everything, you can deploy on your own servers if the cost of the cloud is too much. You can even run the whole system yourself if you want to. Here is a link to documentation https://manual.grid.tf/ Also, we are honored if it piqued your interest,…

Hello HN, I’m excited to share something we’ve been working on: Cloud Troubleshooting Labs. This tool provides on-demand environments for engineers to practice hands-on troubleshooting with AWS, GCP, Azure, and Kubernetes. What it does: We use Pulumi to spin up these environments. Each scenario includes a diagram and an explanation of the available IT infrastructure. Engineers are tasked with fixing configuration issues to make the application work. Depending on the test type, the environment could range from a simple terminal to a full cloud environment or a web-based VSCode. Many of our…

We have been working on Multy, an open-source[1] tool that enables developers to deploy and switch to any cloud - AWS, Azure and GCP for now. We realized that, even when using Terraform, writing infrastructure code is very different for each cloud provider. This means changing clouds or deploying the same infrastructure in multiple clouds requires rewriting the same thing multiple times. And even though most core resources have the same functionality, developers need to learn a new provider and all its nuances when choosing a new cloud. This is why we built Multy. Multy is currently…

Hi HN! My name is Lio. I'm the author of the article and CTO of Defang: a CLI tool to deploy Docker Compose projects to the cloud(s). This story on how I deployed a website just to transfer a file got many chuckles in my friend circle and it was suggested I blog about it, so here it is. Yes, it's ridiculous, but it got the job done, and hopefully you'll enjoy the story, and perhaps the tool, too. AMA
