In what mature organization takes it more than a week? My current org is quite mature: You probably use it. It's also not a cloud provider: Our aws bill is in the high 8 figures a month. And yet launching a new service not directly pingable from the internet, and deployed in, say, 5 regions, is a matter of 3 PRs, adding the service to CI included. I've gone from having no repo at all to deployment in 4 days, because we were in a big hurry. All the infra-defining PRs will get eyes from an SRE or three, but the team that is writing the service is writing the PRs.I bet we have far more instances under our name than the people that write this article, and yet we have nowhere near that level of complexity in our IaC definitions. And yet, somehow we manage. I guess we are immature?
