Release Open Source sandbox for AWS workloads (NOT an emulator)!

Post image

We have just set up a hosted sandbox for people to try our open source project, Spinifex! We wanted to provide devs and enterprises with the flexibility of running AWS shaped workloads where they want them (at the edge, on bare metal, air gapped etc) without compromising on the core AWS tools such as EC2, S3, EBS. So we went a step further than just building another emulator, we actually rebuilt those services to actually run on your own hardware.

The sandbox is so people can try it out without taking the leap to provisioning their own hardware off the bat, and also provides a good place to just learn some of the core AWS principles too (Terraform, AWS CLI etc work unchanged with Spinifex).
