Hey Folks, Founder of Datacol(http://datacol.io) here, We’d love your feedback on our product. We’ve been working hard on it for couple of months.

It can be installed inside your own account (GCP) and uses Container engine, Registry, CloudBuilder, and many other great GCP services under the hood but automates it all away to give you a better deployment experience.

For lazy ones, to see how to deploy a real world application like Mattermost with our CLI(https://goo.gl/j8kUXY).

It’s got a few rough edges but I think it’s usable and we have been using it ourselves. Would you love to use it ? why ? why not ? Thoughts ?

This looks cool, at a glance it looks similar Deis Workflow. Workflow is an open source project - any other key differences? How do you imagine the pricing panning out?

I will check this out sometime in the next week.

We will open source our CLI(core of the project) in couple of weeks. Stay tuned.

Deis Workflow and Datacol are similar in aim but very much different in implementation and approach. Datacol is tightly coupled and optimized for a cloud platform (http://datacol.io/docs/cloudsql/). It uses managed services under the hood, while Deis has its own components (router,object storage, postgres). Your pricing under Datacol will be lesser.

Pricing page is coming soon. We will charge for productivity and workflow tools. Stay tuned.

Thanks for your time. Let me know if you have any questions.
