Not sure what fly.io offers vs Heroku or others (I have played with it some time ago but not used for anything serious), but for an equivalent I'd be looking for automated load balancer setup with SSL, easy scaling up so I can go from 1 to 2 or however many web services (with UI or CLI), simple deployment configuration with a Procfile (or whatever) and managed PostgreSQL/MySQL/Redis including backup/restore when needed.
That's more than what I would have or need locally.
- TekMol 3y agoAnd what kind of project do you run which needs up/down scaling and load balancing? In my experience, for a simple PHP web application, the smallest VMs already can handle a thousand concurrent users, which amounts to something like a million monthly users.
- preseinger 3y agoand what does your experience tell you about applications which are not written in PHP, and which need to handle more than 1000 concurrent users?
