Hey HN, I'm someone who has spent most of his career in big companies, working with pretty silo'd tech. However, for the past year and half, I've been lucky to be at an awesome startup that has allowed me to learn a lot about open source cloud software, and I've gotten to see, first hand, how you can go from prototype to production. I put together a high level list of things you need to get there, which managed to get published in Container Journal. It's for people who are new to cloud apps, and need to know where to look. Check it out if that's you.

There is a part one as well, but linking to part 2 felt a little more rebellious.
