Hey PH! With this V3 launch, we're unveiling our true identity as a Platform-as-a-Service. There are many PaaS, but none as reliable, customizable, and affordable at scale as Flightcontrol ✨ 🎒 We abhor one-size-fits-all thinking and overly prescriptive solutions. Our product enables you to take responsibility for critical decisions instead of us ushering you into The One True Way™️ 🤝 We treat our customers right. And not just right, we go above and beyond to make you as successful as possible. 🌱 We thrive on sustainability. We are now long-term sustainable and do not need any more funding to continue thriving and growing! 🔎 We operate with utmost fairness and transparency. We'll never force you into an enterprise plan based on some unexpected usage that was too hard for you to estimate. V3 is a HUGE improvement for us. Now deploy your apps with: 🏎️ 2-6x faster builds than every other PaaS with brand new build system!! 🤑 50-75% cheaper compute at scale than other PaaS with new ECS+EC2 support (unlocks ability to save even more with Reserved Instance pricing) 👾 now serving AI and video workloads with GPU support 🫣 new private web services not exposed to internet ✈️ scale further with server sizes up to 24,000 GB of RAM 🗿 near perfect reliability because we use native AWS infra w/o custom layers 🧘♀️ utmost flexibility because it deploys to your AWS where you can customize or integrate anything, should the need arise 💰 use your AWS credits to pay for infra AND Flightcontrol, because we are now on AWS marketplace! How is all this possible? You get all this in exchange for taking 1 minute to create & connect an AWS account (really, it’s not hard!) Our bring-your-own AWS model enables us to leap-frog traditional PaaS on almost every metric. We don’t have to reinvent the wheel like other PaaS. We let AWS do what it’s best at, and that frees us to invest everything in DX and features. Does AWS strike fear in your heart? Fear not, we guarantee support for ALL the AWS stuff we manage. We handle it all for you, like any other PaaS. And with strict compute controls, you don't have to worry about run away costs. What to look forward to? Lambda y'all!!! Our next big project is Lambda support for serverless web deployments and event processing. Soon you'll be able to manage and deploy both servers and serverless from a single platform ✨ Learn more at https://www.flightcontrol.dev/ P.S. Flightcontrol is not for you if you want totally free or ultra low cost infra. We are currently optimized for scalable production applications.
