Laravel Cloud just launched! I was somewhat interested in looking at it. A shame it is based in the USA. No can do, with love from Canada.
@outofcontrol if EU based is an option, you might want to check https://tilaa.dev we do provide a container based application platform. That includes the same features (based on a quick look at Laravel) for less of the money.
@jaapio EU definitely an option. Currently hosting at Hetzner for my ex-DigitalOcean VMs. Tilaa looks intersting, thanks.
@outofcontrol let me know when you have questions. Happy to help any time..
@jaapio Dank u wel
@jaapio is it expected that the site's menu doesn't work on mobile fitefox?
I was trying to find documentation on how it works and is configured ;-)
@theseer I think it has not been tested on Firefox mobile. but what do you want to know.
Best way to figure it out btw is to create an account. You do not have to subscribe to see all features.
In general we do run containers. But we do hide all the complexity of containers. All you need to know is how to build a docker image. Push it and fill in the form. We do take care of the rest, autoscaling, health checks, environment variables and persistent storage all included. No hidden cost.
@jaapio just how stuff works. Do i use kubctl? Upload a yaml or other config language? Where do container images come from? If tilaa does rhe ops, how does updating these work? Stuff like that ;-)
@theseer we do not provide kubectl access. We do have an api. Which you can find on graphql.tilaa.com. GitHub action can be found on GitHub marketplace, and cli tool is available on tilaa.dev which is easy to integrate in your ci pipeline.
We are still working on a better easier to use api, so we can provide Ansible an terraform modules.
We do not provide a container registery. So you will have to use one provided externally. Private registries are supported
@theseer underlying technology is Kubernetes ofcourse , but we think Kubernetes is too complicated for most developers. So why add all complexity? If you can just build a docker image? Developers can focus again on what they are good at. Writing code, solving problems. Rather than debugging yaml
@jaapio thanks. Will have a look tomorrow :-)
