As a startup CTO responsible for developing a new product, the last thing I wanted to focus on was my DevOps & deployment strategy. I'd used Heroku in the past (which comes with its own set of challenges), and I had no time to learn about the inner workings of cloud providers or K8S. I was very familiar with Docker and local development, and I had always wondered why I couldn't use the same patterns to deploy my applications in the cloud.
This is exactly the problem that Architect has solved for me. It extends the familiarity of Docker to the world of production environments. You write a Docker compose file with a few extra configuration options, and that powers your local Docker AND production k8s environments.
I can't recommend Architect enough to fellow CTOs and developers. If you're in the process of launching a new service or looking to simplify your production deployment strategy, give Architect a try.
