Honestly though, Fly.io feels like it's off into the future in terms of hosting platforms. Undoubtedly they'll have to work on the reliability problems, not denying that - however, for anyone that can tolerate a bit of reliability issues, which to be honest, is more people than will readily admit it, it might just be worth the trouble for developer experience that legitimately feels like it's from the future.
- candiddevmike 3y agoWhat good is a product like this if it's not stable? Most folks can yolo a global infrastructure if they disregard SLAs...
- jchw 3y agoIt's definitely not unusably unstable, at least from my PoV, and in fact, I haven't really been hit by most of the instability personally; or at least, if I have, it has gone mostly unnoticed by me. I had an issue where I couldn't deploy for a while, but the services that were up seemed fine. (Disclaimer: I do not use the Redis/database features.) That said, the point I'm trying to make is that it is in fact a lot nicer to use than simply YOLOing whatever onto servers. This model of PaaS is basically what App Engine should have been. It's difficult to want to go back once you've used it.
