Hi! I apologize for the sparseness of the website. I'm not a great designer, and this is just my MVP. Pricing model: see http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3870726 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3870726 When it's out of beta, there will be a free tier on Flotype Bridge Public Cloud, and a few paid tiers for people that would like us to manage the Bridge server. This is meant for smaller applications. We can handle 1-2 billion messages/day on a single 8-core server. "Magic scalability" refers to the concept of Bridge Services[1]. If you write code to publish a Bridge Service, you can magically scale by simply firing up more instances of that code. You'll read more about this in the docs. This can be deployed anywhere - EC2, Rackspace, or your private datacenter/cloud, whatever! We just need to make kernel/OS level optimizations for each stack. The Flotype Bridge Cloud runs on EC2, but you can buy and run Bridge anywhere you want. Yes, there is an installable version. The goal of Bridge is to build a messaging system for products with very large messaging needs (billions of messages/hour or more). (This is just a beta). For such applications, subsystem latency is crucial, so the primary deployment model is for you to install it next to your application servers.
