I think your natural competition here is:
1. Things like Digital Ocean that make it easy and can scale up
2. The PaaS offerings of the major clouds for example Microft Azure Appspaces.
I think your advantage might be that you could eject into something more enterprise ready perhaps with Terraform/k8s etc. You could also sell consulting time to help the ejector transition to cloud. Because rearchitecting is part of the issue but the new devops and maintenance load is another issue people will need to deal with.
- zackify 2y agoFly.io is too good and no reason to leave it. I am enjoying it much more than DO too
- z33k 2y agoI think you're right. In fact, that's the stack I would recommend right now to a new (web) app developer. Write your own Dockerfile, some terraform to spin up a docker host on DO, and a bit of GH Actions yml to pass secrets, build dockerfile, upload to container registry, terraform apply. It's a fun weekend project. It's interesting how many ways there are to "build your own PaaS".
