Looks interesting! Bauplan seems like a mix of an orchestration engine and a data warehouse. It's similar to Motherduck as it runs DuckDB on managed EC2, with more data engineer-focused branching and Python support similar to SQLMesh.

It's interesting that most vendors compute in their own managed account instead of BYOC though. I understand it's hard to manage compute on the customer cloud for vendors, but I was under the impression that it's a no-go for most enterprise companies. Maybe I'm wrong?

Correct.

Unlike warehouses or SQL lakehouses, we also any Python code, including from your private AWS repositories for example, through a simple decorator, while giving you transactional pipelines, fully versioned and revertible, like it's a database on your S3.

Wrt deployment, I think things are a bit more nuanced: we are soc2 compliant and provide a enterprise ready control vs data plane separation - data are only processed in single tenant VPC, which is private linked to your account, effectively making the same account networking wise. If you insist on having the data plane in your own account, the architecture supports that as our only data plane dependency is VMs (we install our own custom runtime there!).

To give you a sense, one of our large customers is a 4BN / year large broadcaster with tens of milions of users, and they run with the above AWS security posture.
