I've used flynn on a couple smaller projects and overall had a good time with it. Has anyone used it for any larger projects and wouldn't mind sharing their experiences? I'd be interested to see how it goes once more moving parts get involved.
- quentez 10y agoWe've been using it with a ~10 nodes cluster for some time to host both internal and production apps. It has allowed the rest of the team to focus on the apps themselves without worrying about how to deploy them, how to provision more capacity, how to rollback in case of failure, etc. Using the builtin affinity and priority system, we were able to make sure that production apps would always run smoothly without being affected by our other processes.
- swaits 10y agoWe use it at my company on a 3 node cluster running in AWS. We host about 10 small apps/services in it. They vary from things that do (basically) a single simple API call to full Rails apps. Experience has been very positive. We had our share of "pre 1.0" issues, to be sure. But, the team in #flynn (IRC) is incredibly responsive. It's been a pleasure watching the issues get resolved, merged, and deployed very rapidly. Digging into the code too, it's easy to follow and feels quite nicely architected. Aside from all of that, my team is thrilled to have its own little PaaS.
