Ask HN: What are the next internet infra problems?

This is unfortunate because a couple of attempts get _so close_.

You've got public docker repositories, terraform, aws service catalog (or cloudformation), all of which could fill this gap directly or via their own services if they had a slightly more beginner-accessible workflow...

How do any of these things help?

"docker repositories, terraform, aws service catalog (or cloudformation)"

These are all part of the problem, and can never be the solution.

What is the problem they are a part of, and what makes them part of that problem? They don't seem problematic to me.

You can't solve problems of complexity by piling on more and more layers.

Layers need to be collapsed

Terraform is roughly the equivalent to a Makefile. If anything it reduces complexity by encouraging operations to be run in a reproducible and testable fashion. Is it a layer? Sure, but little more than a shell script is a layer.
