Could you build this?
No Building a multitenant cloud PaaS involves complex container isolation, virtual networking, secure multitenancy, and resource management that cannot be reliably vibe-coded.
What it would actually take: A platform like Miget requires custom orchestration or hardened Kubernetes/Nomad clusters, Firecracker microVMs or secure container runtimes (gVisor), distributed persistent storage (Ceph/NVMe-oF), dynamic reverse proxying (Envoy/Traefik with automatic TLS), and granular Linux cgroups resource limits. It demands specialized systems engineering, kernel-level networking expertise, and 24/7 cloud infrastructure reliability.
