Last.Backend - Pioneering Container Managed PlatformIn 2014, when Kubernetes was not yet a mainstream technology, I conceptualized and spearheaded the creation of Last.Backend, an innovative container managed platform. As the CEO, I played a pivotal role in transforming this visionary idea into a reality, taking on the mantle of platform lead developer and architect.One of the standout achievements within Last.Backend was the establishment of a dedicated DevOps department, which I actively participated in. In this role, I contributed to the successful implementation of dozens of infrastructures of varying complexities. Our DevOps direction leveraged the most sought-after technologies and services based on Kubernetes, while also adopting the 'infrastructure as code' approach.Through relentless dedication and entrepreneurial spirit, Last.Backend achieved remarkable milestones. We secured two successful rounds of investment and successfully completed two prestigious acceleration programs, solidifying our position as a forward-thinking startup.One of our proudest achievements is the open-source nature of our main technology, which is hosted on GitHub and boasts an impressive following of 1600 stargazers.
