Sure, now it does however (via the many OSS PaaS) so the calculus must also therefore change.

Which OSS PaaS are there that are noteworthy? Or do you mean something like Kubernetes?

Coolify is usually loved by the community.

Dokploy is another good one.

Kubero seems nice for more kubernetes oriented tasks.

But I feel like if someone is having a single piece of hardware as the OP did. Kubernetes might not be of as much help and Coolify/Dokploy are so much simpler in that regards.

Thanks. I will look into those.

I suppose kubernetes with the right operators installed and the right node labels applied could almost work as a self service control plane. But then VMs have to run in kubevirt. There is crossplane but that needs another IaaS to do its thing.
