In general we’re not targeting a 1:1 migration from netlify, so while yes we have equivalents for all of the pieces you mention, they work differently and would require migration work to use Coherence. Coherence offers full-stack containeri

If anyone on this thread is looking for an alternative, I’m a cofounder of Coherence (withcoherence.com). We offer a netlify-like experience (managed CI, preview environments) built on top of your own cloud account. And we also offer an int

Wrote up some thoughts last month on serverless vs. containers here: https://www.withcoherence.com/post/containers-and-the-server... My 2c is that for most people using containers on a "serverless" runtime li

At Coherence (withcoherence.com - I'm a cofounder) we generally agree that GKE and other managed k8s are best used for stateless workloads. Rather than move stateful workloads back, leveraging managed services will yield the best resul

This is awesome and in general I couldn’t be more excited about platforms that integrate the loop from building to deploying in one place. Similar tools include glitch, replit, codesphere. I’m the cofounder of Coherence (withcoherence.com)

Our developer experience platform, Coherence, just opened up a free beta for Google Cloud Platform (AWS coming soon) at withcoherence.com. We will always offer a free plan… It’s a great way to get the most out of a cloud’s free tier - we he

This is a strong overview of the leading contenders for the "modern Heroku" that come up often on HN and twitter for the best available platform as a service. I believe that when looking at this space in 2022, you have to consider

The hardest part of this cycle for most teams are steps 2 & 3, getting a consistent development environment and build system across projects just does not happen. The loop is interrupted by the process of reviewing outdated docs, findin

I'm also a bit confused by the terms used here. Is Replicated ( https://www.replicated.com ) an example of the kind of "control plane" you're referencing?

Wrote up some of my own thoughts on this one: https://www.withcoherence.com/post/the-future-of-code-and-no... Bottom line up front, I believe that we don’t want to lose the proven expressiveness of code.

At withcoherence.com, we agree that leaning on managed runtimes for as long as possible makes a ton of sense. I’ve also seen that hiding the complexity of transforming code into deployed containers by fully abstracting away dockerfiles and

In general I think Spanner is more focused on availability than performance (especially across different workloads e.g. analytics/transactions). Also, the Postgres shim for Spanner is not 100% compatible and less mature than Alloy. Las

There's been a lot of talk about fly.io lately - it's clearly an awesome and exciting platform. But I'd have to agree with the author here that it doesn't solve the core problems faced by most web devs and web dev teams.

We’re super early but if all of that running on top of your own cloud using tools like cloud run or fargate sounds interesting, check out www.withcoherence.com (I’m a cofounder).

First - as others have done, I think we have to challenge the premise that Heroku failed. It's still the gold standard 15 years later and the default for many knowledgable folks. Obviously given the hype around k8s and the order of mag

Agree that railway is the most promising "next-gen" heroku-like - between multi-service apps, opinionated pipelines, and the add-ons - they have got the basics right! replit is the most holistic and unique product in the broader c

Cloud Run is awesome, probably the best "megacloud" container/serverless product. But compared to Heroku it still leaves a lot on the table when it comes to developer experience. Stuff like: long-running workers, crons (they&

Thanks! As far as business continuity for the end of our journey, that’s one of the main reasons we believe so strongly in running in your own cloud (along with extensibility, cost and compliance). I don’t believe that this means we need to

Along with the vague status updates that provide no information, this has been the most shockingly bad part of the response from my POV, as well. This felt like a phishing email (I know it is not, but given that emails were likely compromis
