Platform Engineering is the unsung hero of tech innovation. Why?
- It streamlines developer workflows.
- Enables faster time-to-market for products.
- Reduces cost with shared services.
The platforms you don't see are scaffolding the products you love.

We’ve spoken to multiple CTO’s who are not able to use amazing open source products due to the friction to onboard and maintain them long term.
That’s why we built
@scout_flo
Deploy.
Now open source products can be deployed on your own cloud within minutes.
Deploying open source products and self-hosting them is no easy feat at all ☹️
You need to:
- Spend a lot of your time
- Go through tedious documentation
- Seek extensive DevOps support
In other words, self-hosting is NOT self-serve.

GitOps revolves around one key principle:
Git is the ultimate source of truth.
Every change, review, and approval happens through pull requests.
This way, changes are:
→ Traceable
→ Easily reversible
→ Secure
→ Authoritative

Tech giants need to manage millions of containers across thousands of servers worldwide.
Kubernetes lets them do that from a single dashboard.
They can:
- Deploy and update applications at scale,
