Sure:
It is just a replacement for AWS/GCE for unikernels in general,
Rumprun ones in particular.
Hosting/configuration/network setup/etc. was such a pain to us when we
were trying to get going with it for production. We wanted something
that we could provision on demand.
As for how it works - admittedly it's very light on documentation
right now - we'll try to improve that in the next few days but some
examples are @ https://deferpanic.net/examples . We'll be opening up an
API shortly but essentially after pointing it at a github repo (of which
you could fork examples of above) we burn the image and allow you to
boot it up. In the case of something like drupal we can boot up the
database and the barebones install pre-configured for you.
Since CI/CD is completely different with this style of infrastructure
it's also an exercise in exploring what is missing tool wise.
