Treating internal infrastructure as a product with standardized cluster blueprints, embedded compliance defaults and delegated ownership models.
A dev.to writeup argues shared-cluster cost stalls because nobody owns a number they cannot see. Allocating node cost by max(requests, usage) gets you attribution before a clean label scheme.

A devops.com essay argues durability, per-step identity and decision-level observability belong in the agent runtime, not layered on later. The failure economics support the claim.
