Proposes building a lightweight platform from CNCF open source components in about six weeks, staffed by two engineers for 30 days at ~£36k plus ~£10k training (≈£46k setup). Claims cutting release time (2 days to 1) drops churn from 10% to 2%, turning annual churn loss from ~£400k to ~£40k (≈80% reduction). Also models availability (99.95%), multi-region architecture, and real outage losses (Delta ~$380M, TSB fines ≈£50M) to justify investment.
