Sounds interesting. Have you any comparisons between this and StackStorm? At first glance, this looks like it competes in a similar market.
Additionally, is this only going to be a SaaS offering, or will we have the option to self-host this as well?
- bradhe 6y agoHey there, as mentioned elsewhere I'm an engineer on Relay. Our PM is busy right now so thought I'd jump in. > Have you any comparisons between this and StackStorm? Relay is very similar to StackStorm! One of the biggest differences between Relay and StackStorm, however, is that every step and trigger in Relay is just a docker container. You can basically run any container you want, but containers that are authored specifically for Relay are, obviously, better (integration with the execution environment, our secrets management service, etc.). > is this only going to be a SaaS offering This is another key difference between Relay and StackStorm: We only offer a SaaS right now. That's not to say that we won't eventually offer a self-hosted version (or some sort of hybrid solution for that matter)--it's just the approach we're going with for now.
- tbrb 6y ago> every step and trigger in Relay is just a docker container Ooh, that makes sense. This is also reminding me a bit of Concourse CI (https://concourse-ci.org https://concourse-ci.org) as that's all docker-based too, though last I checked it wasn't as kubernetes-native (which I appreciate)
- jacques_chester 6y agoThere's a lineage -- Concourse was an inspiration for Tekton, and Relay uses Tekton as part of its substructure[0]. [0] https://relay.sh/docs/how-it-works/#workflow-execution https://relay.sh/docs/how-it-works/#workflow-execution
