How To Build Your Own Heroku in 2022?
summary
Claim: a Heroku-like, company-tailored platform is practical in 2022 by combining Kubernetes APIs, CRDs and control loops with Crossplane compositions and GitOps. The demo builds two clusters (Civo in minutes, AWS in ~30m) by committing a composite cluster CR, then deploys a backend + managed Postgres by committing an application CR; Argo CD syncs repos, Crossplane provisions infra and reconciles continuously. Key tools shown: Crossplane Compositions and Argo CD + GitOps; the setup works end-to-end in the demo.
