yes although i have done it 3 times, once by hand manually, once with kubernets and once with the docker compose exmaple
my experince is you can do it by hand in a day. kubernetes took me about a week or two weeks to get it working and
the docker comose example that zuul has which deploy gerrit,zuul,nodepool and a contianer as a static worker node can be
done in like an hour.

im sure Software Factory helps and i will proably try it next time but its not hard to do it manually its just involved.
if software factory makes it just a few commands and supprots day two operation like reconfiguration and upgrades
simpley then that is defintly added value.
