Introducing np — Deploy like K8s, Simple like Compose
Today we’re releasing np — a deployment platform for teams that need production-grade capabilities without production-grade complexity. The problem If you’re a small-to-medium team running 10-50 services on 3-15 servers, your options are: Docker Compose: Too simple. No health checks, no rolling updates, single-node only. Kubernetes: Too complex. Weeks to learn, months to stabilize, needs a dedicated ops person. Bare Nomad: Too bare. You have to assemble Consul, Traefik, monitoring, and logging yourself. There’s a gap. And that gap is where np lives.
