I'm building Mengi Cloud (https://app.mengi.cloud) - For over 25 years I've been working in IT and automation and this is my attempt at finally starting a business doing what I do best.

Over the last 10 years I've been automating kubernetes cloud environments and no matter what company I end up working at, eventually they all want the same. Easy deployments and -not- having a degree in Kubernetes knowledge to run their apps.

In addition there's a growing amount of people/companies wanting to move away from US-owned cloud providers (the big three), so I figured, I'll combine everything. Easy to create deployments on whatever cloud with a focus on being able to migrate from one provider to the other.

The more I'm working on it, the more ideas I keep getting and wanting to add to the platform. I would really appreciate feedback from anyone no matter how big or small the criticism!
