FathomDB has just open-sourced PlatformLayer, which makes it easy to
build anything as a service.  It takes all the know-how and a lot of
the code from running FathomDB's MySQL-as-a-service offering.

You can now build your:

Memcached-as-a-service (like AWS ElastiCache)
MySQL-as-a-service (like AWS RDS)
Nginx-as-a-service (like AWS Elastic Load Balancing)
DNS-as-a-service (like AWS Route 53)
etc

This is just a starting point, but I'm hoping to present this more at
the Design Summit - I'm thinking I'll try live-coding a new service in
15 minutes (anyone have any requests?  RabbitMQ-as-a-service?)
