The vision of this article is a similar vision to earthly.dev, a company I have founded to pursue the issues presented here.
We have built the build system part and are working on completing the vision with the CI part.
We use buildkit underneath as a constraint solver and our workflows are heavily DAG based.
Hundreds of CI pipelines run Earthly today.
I don't fully agree with all the assumptions in the article, including with the fact that the TAM is limited here. CI has been growing at 19% CAGR and also I think there are possibilities for expanding into other areas once you are a platform.
