I already use it. It is called ssh from claude code.

Control Plane is a virtual cloud platform. It lets you run workloads that scale up and down to save $ on AWS, GCP, Azure, on-prem or any provider. The Control Plane MCP service allows your AI tool to interface with the Control Plane API/CLI to deploy and manage your backend workloads, and persistent databases, queues, etc.

Anyone needing multi-cloud WITH EASE, please get in touch. https://controlplane.com

I am the CEO of the company and started it because I wanted to give engineering teams an unbreakable cloud. You can mix-n-match services of ANY cloud provider, and workloads failover seamlessly across clouds/on-prem environments.

Feel free to get in touch!

Looks cool. To gain any traction, it must be open source. Otherwise, how do I know whether the app sends my credentials to someone else?

New comment by dorongrinstein in "Replacing Kubernetes with systemd (2024)"

At https://controlplane.com we give you the power of Kubernetes without the toil of k8s. A line of code gets you a tls terminated endpoint that is geo routed to any cloud region and on-prem location. We created the Global Virtual Cloud that let's you run compute on any cloud, on premises hardware or vm's and any combination. I left vmware to start the company because the cognitive load on engineers was becoming ridiculous. Logs, metrics, tracing, service discovery, TLS, DNS, service mesh, network tunnels and much more - we made it easy. We do to the cloud what vmware did to hardware - you don't care what underlying cloud you're on. Yet you can use ANY backing service of AWS, GCP and Azure - as if they merged and your workloads are portable - they run unmodified anywhere and can consume any combination of services like RDS, Big Query, Cosmos db and any other. It is as if the cloud providers decided to merge and then lower your cost by 60-80%.

Check it out. Doron

I can't go to sleep now, knowing I killed 0.000001 people with my stupid email signature. I'm a terrible person.

New comment by dorongrinstein in "Ask HN: Why there's no email address portability like with phone numbers?"

dorongrinstein — Mon, 03 Mar 2025 05:31:05 +0000

Email is portable. You need to use your own domain. If you use Gmail.com as the domain it isn't reasonable to expect yahoo can serve a Gmail domain. That's not how the internet works. There's a very easy and common solution - buy a domain for $10/yr and use email providers that let you bring your own domain. It is portable by design.

To add smarts to tools like Cursor, simply include a "how to deploy" text file and then tell the IDE "deploy" and be done. Control Plane (https://controlplane.com) lets you deploy to any cloud, or on-prem without fuss and get observability, secrets management, and MUCH more. I'd love to get feedback.

New comment by dorongrinstein in "Seeking Best Function as a Service Platforms – Any Recommendations?"

dorongrinstein — Mon, 23 Dec 2024 03:14:12 +0000

Hi, While not strictly function as a service, Control Plane (my company) makes it trivial to turn your Python (or any language) code into a containerized workload and get a TLS endpoint (including on your own domain) super easily. If you have a Dockerfile, it will use it. If you don't have a Dockerfile, it will still containerize your code using Build packs. You get logging, metrics, tracing, secrets management, service mesh (mutual TLS across services, service discovery and whole lot more) and lots of additional 'goodies' like being able to run your code ANYWHERE - your own hardware, VMs, Hetzner, Linode, Digital Ocean, AWS, GCP, Azure, Oracle, etc. - or Control Plane pre-configured multi-tenant clusters that make your life very easy because it is serverless across AWS, GCP, and Azure. What's more - you can mix-n-match ANY service from AWS, GCP and Azure and your code is portable - it works the same whether you run it on one cloud, or another, or both, or ten different locations across different clouds and on-prem infra. It is also ultra low-cost because you pay by the millicore that your Python (or any language) code actually consumes. If you want to dig deeper, check out our website https controlplane dot com or cpln.com

We at Control Plane (https://cpln.com) make it easy to repatriate from the cloud, yet leverage the union of all the services provided by AWS, GCP and Azure. Many of our customers moved from cloud A to cloud B, and often to their own colocation cage, and in one case their own home cluster. Check out https://repatriate.cloud

I saw an entry a few minutes ago by someone complaining about how come he has to navigate to news.ycombinator.com and not go directly to a hackernews domain. I thought it was a silly enough request to allow me to demonstrate https://controlplane.com (I'm the CEO).

So now, you can navigate to https://hackernews.live and if you want to see a step-by-step instruction to how I set it up, I recorded this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXISIuL5DSU
