I really love Render.
AWS is too low level for me. Render helps us spin up new applications in a few clicks. Kind of like Vercel for backend.
Might just be a skill issue but I can definitely see the value from using the product.
- ignoramous 2y ago> AWS is too low level for me We had good success with Lightsail; but then moved to Fly.io & the Cloudflare platform and spend ~zero time on sre & devops.
- RainyDayTmrw 2y agoI'm curious what you use for a database on Fly.io. When I last looked into it, a proper managed database option was the last thing that they were missing from what I wanted.
- SOLAR_FIELDS 2y agoI'm not skin in the game on either company but I know that they partnered with Supabase for awhile on this. I'm not sure if that partnership is ongoing or not.
- alexeldeib 2y agoSupabase would be a good pick. Vercel and Cloudflare both do SQL DBs now too, curious how they are. Neon seemed interesting, haven’t heard much about them in a while. None of those integrated of course, but easier than going big cloud or self hosted
- thrwaway223 2y agoVercel SQL DB is just a thin wrapper (with added cost) on Neon
- leerob 2y ago(I work at Vercel) We got rid of this and made it the same price as using Neon directly. We also added a bunch more database options (e.g. Supabase) https://vercel.com/marketplace https://vercel.com/marketplace
- didgeoridoo 2y agoNot first party, but they offer integrations with Neon, Supabase, PlanetScale, and Crunchy Bridge for managed pg. Their “you’re on your own” option is really nice though for cheap, non-mission-critical stuff, and you can even scale the compute to zero during inactivity and just pay the attached volume costs.
