Yeah but is still not as managed as I want. You still need to populate a Kubernetes cluster which is 3 node minimum. Instances show up in your instances list and you still have to be careful to pop your instances in different zones/region for availability. In an ideal world I just want to run containers in a region with a LB in front, I don't care on which Kubernetes cluster they are. That the use case hyper.sh seems…

> 3 node minimum Since when?

Yup, last I checked you can create GKE clusters as small as 1 node.

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.

So you are upset because you got a marketing email?

Oh my. You must be very careful with giving your email address to anyone, then...

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 :(

You may login to your console, and the overview page 'https://console.hyper.sh/overview' shows all what you have.

Wow, very good experience you guys are delivering here! Congratulations on shipping! Little question, you guys said you started in Beijing, and that your next plans are NYC and Europe... Why did you leave Beijing? Didn't the local growth attract you?

Hey Uniclaude, we didn't leave Beijing. Still there with people in NYC. We just decided to open the first AZ in Los Angeles.

I did, but I still needed to delete every single thing by hand, and some things could not be deleted because other things were using them, even though I had stopped all the things, so it had to be in a specific order that took a while to figure out.

A what? :)

:-) A Floating IP: https://docs.hyper.sh/Feature/network/fip.html

Ah, no I did not. I suppose it's possible that nat-ing to an internal ip is more contested than routing/nat-ing to a floating ip.

I'm trying this out by deploying my website (static files generated from Jekyll source and served, all in a Docker image). I've written the following instructions for updating the site (build new image, push to Docker Hub, pull into hyper.sh, stop previous container, run new one, attach floating IP). Does it seem reasonable? HYPER_IP=209.177.92.197 LATEST_HASH=$(git log -1 --pretty=format:%h) IMAGE_NAME=beneills/webs…

> LATEST_HASH=$(git log -1 --pretty=format:%h)

LATEST_HASH=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)

is the more normal way to do that.

It also looks like you'll have downtime due to deleting then running. Eww.

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!

> serverless cron. damn, thank you. Anywhere I can see implementation details? Are you rolling your own system from the ground up, or using something like dkron ( http://dkron.io/ ) behind the scenes?

Is serverless cron something you´d pay money for?

Have you thought about allowing users to provide their own cloud provider (AWS or Google Cloud) API access? That way we can use own own VPC and servers, and you can just charge us monthly for the software. See MongoDB Atlas [1]. This also means you as Hyper.sh don't have to worry about servers, uptime, buying hardware, power, bandwidth peering, what a headache. Let AWS and Google worry about the commodity physical ha…

Fun fact: this is basically what Tutum did before they were acquired by Docker and became Docker Cloud

This is still possible with Docker Cloud. You can either choose to have a node auto-provisioned on a cloud provider or install their agent on one of you own.
