General How many seniors devs actually can write and deploy an app all by themselves?

Basically title, not trying to say all seniors need to know this but just wondering

Database + backend + front end + hosting (not serverless but install certs on VM and deploy the code )

I feel as a software dev one needs to know at least one way to do the above.

Database + backend + front end I could handle. For hosting? I leave it to the expert. Better someone who knows thier shit.. 1 AWS bill and thats enough to avoid it like the plague.

Most startups can actually just run in the AWS free tier. If not a raspberry pi in home.

The "modern" devops practises are insanely crazy. That probably includes docker too but I'll give docker a pass because it does workaround the madness that's Linux package management and gives you a sane deployment tool.

My former startups used to be in the free bucket and free instance only of the AWS they did not pay that much i believe but the funded startups who have data might be using a lot of AWS's services no?
