sounds great! the question about Nomad was not related to Fly Machine
btw., i've sent a mail already (mish at ushakov), but only got an automated message
i'm already using free fly.io for wikinewsfeed.org and very happy so far
would be awesome if you could send me a tip how i could use fly.io to deploy instances for my customers?
in my use-case i want to run many instances of Chrome at the same time
running like 100x instances of Chrome on a single machine is too resource-intensive and having a bigger host machine won't do the job, so your only option is to have a dedicated vm for each Chrome instance
- perk 4y agoI need the same thing :) Basically a VM for each CPU-bound process I need to start from a queue. Did you find anything useful?
- ushakov 4y agoyes! a fellow HN user e-mailed me about his project "Spawner" https://github.com/drifting-in-space/spawner https://github.com/drifting-in-space/spawner check out the demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGsxxcQRKa4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGsxxcQRKa4
- perk 4y agoThanks for sharing! That looks promising, but I don't want to handle any of this myself :/ I want a service where I can start a new VM fast by posting to an API, have it run some long running JS server code, and the VM should close itself when it's done. My use case is often CPU bound, so a small VM with a single CPU is just fine.
