Six months in as platform lead and you have a spreadsheet you haven't shown your manager. Eleven Kubernetes clusters. EKS for production. GKE for the ML team. Two on-prem clusters behind the firewall that predate your tenure. A handful of Kind clusters developers spun up locally. Each one has its own deployment pipeline, its own credentials rotation process, its own way of answering "is this service healthy?"

Your team isn't building features anymore. You're maintaining eleven slightly different versions of the same tooling.

Introduction​

You want the simplicity of "push code, get a live URL"—the developer experience Vercel pioneered—but with full control over your deployment, infrastructure, and compliance. This guide shows you how to build that experience on your own AWS infrastructure using AstroPulse and open-source tools: kpack, cert-manager, external-dns, and nginx-ingress.

You'll build a production-grade platform that delivers Git-push deployments with automatic TLS certificates, preview URLs, and complete observability—all running on infrastructure you own and control. Unlike hosted PaaS platforms, you'll be building on Kubernetes with full deployment control. That means you can run any workload: microservices (with or without public endpoints), stateful databases, WebSockets, long-running background jobs, AI/ML model training and serving, or traditional web applications in any language. You get the simple developer experience with complete architectural control.

How operations work: The infrastructure industry is moving toward an agentic era—AI agents autonomously handling complex workflows (MCP, A2A, multi-agent orchestration). We're heading toward infrastructure that self-configures, self-heals, and self-optimizes. We're not there yet, but Nova brings you AI-assisted operations today with human-in-the-loop. Day 1 (this guide): You build the platform. Day 2 (ongoing): Nova analyzes issues, diagnoses problems, recommends fixes—you approve. As AI matures, more becomes autonomous.
