    For now, the vcpus are shared for all types of MicroVMs with a constant ratio for each GB of RAM. We're planning to release instance types with dedicated CPUs for applications that…

    The starter plan is actually a pay-per-use plan, so you're starting at $0 and spending depending on your usage. You don't need to move directly to $79. Does that make sense? It see…

    Thanks for all the questions! We're headquartered in Europe, you'll find the legal in our terms :) https://www.koyeb.com/docs/legal/terms There is a difference between edge and non…

    I’d say we don’t use it exactly the same way: we don’t have a single global nomad cluster, which is a critical difference. We have one Nomad cluster per region, which we “federated…

    Thanks! Hope you’ll like it :) We have similarities with fly.io (Firecracker MicroVMs on top of BareMetal) and also some key differences: - we directly integrate with GitHub to aut…

    We focused on estimating the minimum/entry-level cost of Kubernetes here. If you have a data intensive service, it surely would add up, but it's not specific to Kubernetes. If you …

    You're right, having only one person on call for a managed cluster doesn't make a lot of sense. We should probably have planned with at least 2 people for a managed cluster too to …

    Hi! Yann, co-founder at Koyeb, here. Yes, we considered Consul as a service mesh but found that it was too strongly coupled with the network and task layer of Nomad. We were lookin…

    Ahah! Reminds me of what we're building at Koyeb. ( https://www.koyeb.com/blog/the-koyeb-serverless-engine-docke... ) It should be as easy to deploy and deal with containers as it …

    I'm Yann, one of the co-founder of Koyeb. Thanks for your interest! To give you an idea, we charge $1 per 10 hours of compute, accounted by 100ms. Each function or container has 1G…
