What would make the process more integrated on Render?

by anurag 4y ago
(Render founder) Any chance we could connect about the issues you saw with Render? Email in profile. Lots of former Heroku customers spending thousands of dollars every month have successfully made the switch to Render and are quite happy (

(Render founder) thanks for the rec and feel free to get in touch with me anytime (email in profile). For those who need them, we offer enterprise support plans with response and uptime SLAs.

Render supports all of these workflows.

We actually use Render cron jobs under the hood: https://render.com/docs/cronjobs

In terms of effort, a couple of engineers worked on the app part-time for a few weeks. A Stripe App is the best way to handle permissions on behalf of a user, plus it gives Render more visibility in their marketplace.

Much appreciated. I hope we can continue to help as you grow.

We (Render) are a featured app in the marketplace [1]; the app lets you run real time queries against your Stripe data in a fully-managed PostgreSQL database that's always in sync. Happy to answer questions about our experience buildin

Update: we now have https://render.com/security

by anurag 4y ago
We should definitely add more tutorial/walkthrough type docs.

by anurag 4y ago
Good to hear you liked Render, and sorry for the confusion between Jobs and Cron Jobs (we have an open task to improve docs for both). Heroku Scheduler = Cron Jobs on Render. Would you mind emailing me (see profile) or support@render.com wi

Render will have these certifications late summer (we're currently being audited for both).

by anurag 4y ago
Exactly, you can use any command or script to build your app, and you would select Python as the native Render environment and run your Node build as part of your build script. Here's a quick example: https://render.com&#x

(Render founder) Security and uptime are the only two existential threats to Render, so you can imagine we lose enough sleep over it. We regularly fill out security questionnaires that lead to successful migrations. Still, we can do a bette

by anurag 4y ago
I agree we haven't focused on demonstrating security, but obviously, internally, we are quite paranoid about it. Still, this comment is well-deserved because as much as we'd like them to, our customers can't simply read our

That's fair. The current workaround is to use the search in our docs, or add 'render.com' to Google queries. Of course, I'd love examples of frustrating searches.

No immediate native PHP plans, but we're actively hiring to move faster on all axes.

Render has automatic Postgres backups, and you can also click a button to create new backup. We're working on HA (ETA late summer/early fall).

by anurag 4y ago
All of Render's native environments include Node by default.

by anurag 4y ago
We're planning to release the notion of build promotion on Render late summer/early fall.

by anurag 4y ago
(Render founder) Thank you for the support. You might have shared this with our support engineers already but I'd love to hear about what you missed from Heroku (email in profile). We're building Render for the very long term and

It's a temporary decision until we can build multi-tenant Postgres instances which will be perpetually free.

by anurag 4y ago
Render has persistent disks! https://render.com/docs/disks . We need to expose them for cron jobs though.

Render has native automatic backups for PostgreSQL: https://render.com/docs/databases#backups Review apps on Render are called Preview Environments: https://render.com/docs/preview-environments

by anurag 4y ago
A clarification: every static site or full stack app can have up to 25 custom domains for free on Render. Most sites only have 2 (apex and www).

by anurag 4y ago
No immediate plans, but I'd love to see this on Render at some point, and not just for Slack.
148.
by anurag 4y ago
Render has review apps ( https://render.com/docs/preview-environments ). We're actively working on pipelines (early access ETA late summer).

> If Heroku and Engine Yard were too early, we would have seen more widespread adoption of next-generation PaaS (e.g., fly.io, Render). Biased take from the founder of one of the next-generation companies mentioned: given how new Render

As a quick fix, we updated our pricing page to directly link to the limits on free services and databases: https://render.com/pricing
