There’s a need for an integrated software platform with all the parts of a modern tech stack pre-configured to work together, tuned, and operated hands-off. Savvy and well-constructed infrastructure can be a force multiplier for the business. Still, it requires lots of moving pieces that integrate smoothly, stably, and scalably to create something that’s more than the parts. That’s not easy or cheap.
