This is my, fully bootstrapped, take on an application hosting platform. I designed it primarily for myself, to meet the following goals:
* Utilize the best parts of the cloud, leave expensive value added services behind. * Host anywhere in the world, close to your users. * Batteries included: backups, logging, monitoring, auto-scaling, containerization, databases. * Simple and user friendly.
The journey was tough. It took me round about 3 years to get everything just right. This goes against the conventional wisdom of getting something simple out quick. With a hosting platform however, in my mind, reliability, stability and certain maturity are a must have from the start.
I definitely need to work on the presentation, it's barely covering the basics. But you have to start somewhere :-)
I'd love to hear some critique from the community. Thanks!
