- bdon 6y agoAuthor here; a narrower way to express what I meant: A frontend developer who wants to put a map in their application and wants control over the hosting and data faces some obstacles when using MBtiles: * Need a virtual machine and disk space * Need to choose a particular program to read the MBTiles and serve it via HTTP * Might need reverse proxy and service monitor (systemd or sysv init) to keep it running 24/7 * Need to deal with SSL termination The popularity of serverless platforms = evidence there's a strong market for delivering software without all of this.
