Correct. My last job built a low rent version of this and it was very painful. 15-45 minutes to launch a pod that would have taken 3 minutes under Compose. Pushed a new base image? Whole thing would roll over and need another 15-45 minutes.

To do this well it takes manpower. There are some off the shelf options out there for remote/prod like Kubernetes based development that are smarter choices than building your own. The table stakes for doing this is being a big corp that can afford to spend millions on one custom tool with a hope for positive ROI. For the rest of us, find something that works that is open source or easily licensed.
