    Flowpipe – cloud scripting using HCL▲10

    Flowpipe [1] is a new open source [2] cloud scripting engine from Turbot [3]. Some of you may already use Steampipe [4], our open-source [5] tool to live query cloud APIs. We believe DevOps teams need an easier way to orchestrate their cloud, build workflows and respond to events. But - because it's DevOps - that must be in code. In Flowpipe, pipelines are written in HCL and use simple primitives for HTTP requests, executing containers, running Lambda-compatible functions, querying databases like Steampipe and more. We have also published a large ecosystem of open source Flowpipe Mods [6].…

    Porter Cloud – PaaS with an eject button▲258

    Hi HN! Porter Cloud (https://porter.run/porter-cloud) is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) like Heroku, but we make it easy for you to migrate to AWS, Azure, or GCP when you're ready. Like Heroku, Porter takes care of a lot of generic DevOps work for you (like setting up CI/CD, containerizing your applications, autoscaling, SSL certificates, setting up a reverse proxy) and lets you deploy your apps with a few clicks — saving you a lot of time while developing. However, as you probably know, there’s a downside: platforms like this become constraining if and when your app…

    I built an open-source data pipeline tool in Goâ–˛200

    Every data pipeline job I had to tackle required quite a few components to set up: - One tool to ingest data - Another one to transform it - If you wanted to run Python, set up an orchestrator - If you need to check the data, a data quality tool Let alone this being hard to set up and taking time, it is also pretty high-maintenance. I had to do a lot of infra work, and while this being billable hours for me I didn’t enjoy the work at all. For some parts of it, there were nice solutions like dbt, but in the end for an end-to-end workflow, it didn’t work. That’s why I decided to build an…
