What’s it like? To be so cynical that it makes you so blindingly wrong? Terraform, packer, consul, and vault are all ground up products that solve very interesting problems. Nomad is a solid product. They’re all written from the ground up.

How many third party companies do you think get pre-release access to AWS, Azure, and GCE and many others so that their software (in this case terraform) supports it the day of announcement?

Yeah.

Do you know major financial and government institutions are using vault? Do you know how long it takes those organizations to use security software as core parts of their business? Vault is barely 3 years old and is extensively used by them.

Where is the thin wrappper in Hashicorp’s case?

I used all of them and they are really overrated. Also they are not solving much.

I agree with you, but perhaps we could lay off the tone at the start. Maybe GP is not cynical but just uninformed
