Kerno▲132Hey HN! Anibal, Sean, Vlad, Maxi and Karim here we're the co-founders of Kerno (https://www.kerno.io/).

No complex rollouts, no custom infra, no tons of instrumentation, no sidecars… none of that! Just a minimum effort, out-of-the box, highly contextualized and interactive experience so you and your team can focus on shipping!

Hi HN! We’re Yann, Edouard, and Bastien from Koyeb (https://www.koyeb.com/). We’re building a platform to let you deploy full-stack apps on high-performance hardware around the world, with zero configuration. We provide a “global serverless feeling”, without the hassle of re-writing all your apps or managing k8s complexity [1]. We built Scaleway, a cloud service provider where we designed ARM servers and provided them as cloud servers. During our time there, we saw customers struggle with the same issues while trying to deploy full-stack applications and APIs resiliently. As…

Hey HN! We wanted to share with you nxs-universal-chart - our open-sourced universal Helm chart. You can use it to deploy any of your applications into Kubernetes/OpenShift and other orchestrators compatible with native Kubernetes API. Our team regularly faced the need to create almost identical charts, so when we had 14 identical microservices in one project, we came up with a chart format that essentially became a prototype of nxs-universal-chart. It turned out to be more relevant than we even thought! When we needed to prepare CI/CD for 60 almost identical projects for a…
