Is the title peak buzzword-era, or is there more to come?

This might be an elaborate demo for the upcoming thisblogpostdoesnotexist ML text synthesis project.

Just for fun, I used Grover to generate an article based on the headline:

> I am not arguing that globalizing your compute resources through a community cloud is any less important than globalizing your compute resources through your enterprise cloud (though I am somewhat of a skeptic about the value of community clouds). The important point is that migrating to a global cloud requires a state-of-the-art approach to container-native load balancing, container-native load balancing on AWS, and container-native load balancing on other clouds. And you need to be prepared to pay for it.

These kind of reverse dependencies, where app level changes have to be reflected in infrastructure are source of endless bugs and headaches.

To do it right, you'd want to encode app and infra changes in the same ubiquitous tool, but "infrastructure as a code" tools such as terraform suck big times at app level deploys.

Pulumi takes steps in right direction, where it is actually not that painfull to manage everything, that is what I ended up using for very similar problem configuring GCPs load balancers for my k8s apps.

Can you tell me a little more about Grover, is it a CLI you just pointed at a URL or a little bit more to generate that article?

I have a local version of Grover and the model checkpoints, so I used a python script. But I think there's an online demo somewhere.
