what it does

What Spinifex does#

At Mulga, we're building Spinifex, an open source AWS alternative which allows the recreation of the core AWS services (EC2, EBS, S3 and more) directly on your own hardware. It's not just an emulator. We have re-engineered the actual services, but kept the API surface identical such that pre-existing workloads looking for a local/sovereign/edge alternative can get there with zero re-write.

Spinifex also works with popular IaC tools like Terraform with a simple profile swap.

We release weekly and are looking for early stage feedback.
