Ooh, pretty! That's going to convince non-technical managers to use this service. Put that display on a big screen in the manager's office and they'll think they know what's going on.

A display application like that would be useful for AWS, so you know roughly what's going on in your rented subcloud. With, of course, both big screen and phone app versions. From the other comments, it seems that this startup has a poor container management system but a great visualization tool. There are lots of container management systems (one written in Go was announced on HN yesterday) but many are still at the command line level for monitoring. Maybe this startup should pivot and do "cloud management visualization".

Those have existed for a while, e.g. VisualOps[1].
