Cohesive is a platform that allows you to effortlessly create on-demand staging environments in your own cloud. Cohesive ensures you never have to worry about: - Maintenance of environments - just to ensure their configurations are up to date. - Bottlenecks in developers' bandwidth as they struggle to use the same set of environments…
In plain words
Cohesive is a platform that creates on-demand staging environments within a user's own cloud infrastructure. It allows development teams to provision separate environments automatically, reducing maintenance overhead and eliminating shared environment bottlenecks. The platform generates preview URLs for pull requests, enables automated environment hibernation to control costs, and improves collaboration by giving developers dedicated testing spaces. It is designed for engineering teams managing multiple staging environments.

A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly.
