Does anyone actually read the WSJ links that get posted here? It’s subscription only so linking from here only works if you already subscribe, at which point you’re not linking from hacker news...
We are a team of two, focusing on security, automation, CI/CD, cloud infrastructure design and implementation (primarily AWS with Terraform). After about a decade at Google/YouTube I realized that most startups just wing it and could benefit greatly from a short stint with an SRE to get them going in the right direction in terms of: security, automation, CI/CD, and intentional systems design.
Most startups don’t have time to prioritize security, automation and operations best practices, even though these things pay off in the long run. That’s where we come in.
For example, we created a Terraform template for secure, scalable initial infrastructure on AWS. (You can stand up your AWS infrastructure in minutes). We’re happy to give that away to anyone who asks because that gets everyone started in the right direction.
I founded my consultancy with the goal of helping everyone do DevOps just a little bit better. I am working with one other person who I have trained in best practices. We’ve been operating for two years and have completed quite a few successful engagements.
