How long does it take to launch an instance using gcloud docker run? We tried Joyent Triton, which is almost identical to Hyper, but among other big problems it took a LONG time to launch containers. Minutes.

What underlying filesystem does Hyper use? I ask because, on Triton, cloning a ZFS dataset should be very fast, because it is a zero copy operation. It basically consists of copying the metadata for the data set attributes and root directory. So in principle, Triton could perform competitively.

In my experience, it takes 1min to launch a container in Triton, but 5-10s in Hyper.

Congratulations on launching/going public! I remember seeing your hypervisor/container tech a while back, and it's nice to see a service based around it. A couple of thoughts: 1) Your quickstart ends with a command to remove the test container, but leaves other resources, like the pulled image, billed at 10 cents/started GB intact. That's probably going to surprise some people that start to play with your free credit…

10MB/s is closer to 100Mbps not 1Gbps.

Yes, of course, you're right. I'll have to check if that old vm maybe has a 100mbps uplink - or if hetzner have started limiting the speed test.

The main point that the hyper.sh inbound bandwidth is abyssimal still stands.

They are spammers. Last week they spammed my email address unused for years (but still harvestable) write email advertising their product under the pretense that I'll find it useful "as a build it user" (which OSS project I indeed used briefly many years ago).

Such poor judgement goes to show company culture. Wouldn't even consider them for any service after this.

Did you try the test with a FIP?

Hey all, founder is here. I'd like to thank you for your votes here. Really appreciate! Also, I just want to share our public roadmap: https://trello.com/b/7fEwaPRd/roadmap . Feel free to comment. It actually helps a lot for us to prioritize. Thanks!

Are there any plans to offer hosting in germany or at least europe? We love the service you offer, but privacy laws here make it hard to use it when it is only hosted in the US

Okay, but that doesn't answer my question. :-) I'd like to run a local instance of the "hyper system," fully contained on my laptop, perhaps running atop virtualbox. If I find it appealing, with respect to the usage experience (i.e. deploying/composing containers), I'd be willing to run some apps on the real deal. I am, though, not willing to experiment with the "real deal" as a means of evaluating it.

Lol, I think they even give you a free credit to start. It takes like 5 minutes to get set up. Not sure what your hesitation is. It's like "I absolutely won't try DigitalOcean unless they let me create a VM locally first!" Doesn't make any sense.

It takes 5 minutes to get set up, then 15 minutes to make sure you deleted everything afterwards :(

Yes, we are looking to expand to Europe, probably Frankfurt or Amsterdam.

I'd like to keep in touch. Could you drop a message to peng at hyper.sh? Thanks.

Heroku docker support is still in beta: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/container-registry-and... Outside of that you're limited to specific stacks.

Actually, you're not limited to specific stacks on Heroku. There are a number of options. You can use our officially supported languages: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/buildpacks#officially-... You can create a Docker image and deploy it via our container registry: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/container-registry-and...

Hey jbryum, thanks for clarifying.
