I have worked in seed stage startups, mid-stage startups, and bootstrapped early stage startups. If I had to pick tools and methods for a new company, here is what I would choose.
Cloud
Production: AWS fargate, ecr
Automation: Cdk or terraform
Deployment
Merging: 0. run packaged build in codespace and publish to container registry. 1. run staging deploy, automated deployment test, destroy staging 2. run prod deploy.
Observability
Splunk w/structured logging (forgo tracing)
Sentry
Datadog/cloud watch metrics
Instances
Demo/Sandbox: use production with isolated demo account data
