Hey HN – We’re Danny and Ethan from Telophase (https://telophase.dev). We’re building automation to isolate cloud environments by tenant or team. You can think of us as an Open-Source AWS Control Tower[1].

Our CLI is a drop-in tool to manage multi-account AWS setups. To start, we support AWS Account Factory and landing zones defined in AWS CDK. We plan to support multi-project GCP and multi-subscription Azure setups soon!

Features:

1. Manage accounts in code.

2. Provision accounts and their infrastructure with a single command, `telophase deploy`.

3. Deploy to a subset of accounts using tags such as staging, prod-eu, prod-us, etc

4. Monitor concurrent CDK deploys with our TUI

We decided to build Telophase after managing hundreds of accounts with Control Tower. We found it inflexible and required more integration work than we expected. Check out the readme for more:

Interesting. After all, “friends don’t let friends use Control Tower” for many of the reasons you cite.
