Can you mention any examples? I'm keen to know. I personally don't use any such tools. I also agree that building any products in the DevOps space where many people are passionate about their DIY solutions is usually not a good idea.
It's definitely a lot more than just a lift and shift.
The companies are really struggling with managing their costs on cloud.
So far we haven't dealt with a single customer, from individuals to enterprise companies, who has been using their cloud resources even relatively efficiently.
What makes you think it's going to be more complicated if you use ECS behind the scene?
What if I tell you I have a service that is able to do that it takes away all the complexities. You literally need no understanding of the underlying services, you just benefit from its flexibility, and simplicity.
Well to be clear, my question was to provide the service on your own AWS account. This way, you'll have access to all those extra services whenever you need them, and at the same time you can benefit from all the simplicity of such a PaaS experience.
The service connects to your AWS account and builds stuff for you in your own account, if it makes sense.
It's built based on serverless architecture, with isolation between front-end and back-end.
I invite you to take a look and feel free to ask any questions about DoTenX.
