These look all the same. I honestly don't know how people choose one over the other. It's like roulette, gotta pick a random one.
- Nullstone
- Aptible
- Porter
- Flight Control
- Fly.io
I have a feeling I am missing more.
I am looking for a service that helps me orchestrate the deployments of docker containers in AWS. These containers run Python workloads, but are not web-api endpoints. I want to be able to deploy them programmatically and, pause them if they've been idle (something like what supabase does). Is this something you are looking to provide? From a quick glance at your docs, it seems that you are mainly focussing on web fa…
This is by far the best way to deploy compute into AWS in containerized workloads.
The abstraction you want is Jobs: https://aws.github.io/copilot-cli/docs/concepts/jobs/
Building this any other way on AWS would require provisioning multiple artifacts. The Copilot Jobs abstraction basically encapsulates the provisioning of those artifacts into one repeatable pattern.
Fully extensible with CDK and CF if the out-of-the-box workload abstractions aren't enough or you need deeper customization. I have found that the OOB abstractions are "right-sized" for most common workloads and rarely require extension aside from occasionally IAM when integrating with other AWS services.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Thanks for the feedback! I do think that AI is going to have a massive impact on development including cloud infrastructure; however, we rarely see junior developers setting up cloud infrastructure because it is dangerous. Our motivation is to make the cloud easier for all skill levels. In many organizations, this usually requires platform engineers or lead engineers that determine what works best with their technica…
> we rarely see junior developers setting up cloud infrastructure because it is dangerous. So whom is this for? Doesn’t this set up cloud infrastructure? Dangerous how exactly? It’s not a tautology. Someone who can’t handle like, using AWS directly, is a junior developer. Another perspective is the founderese is not very reassuring.
Here are some dangers we've seen from our customers: - Misconfigurations that result in no backups, disabled encryption, etc. - Resources accidentally configured with Internet access - Exposing internal secrets or credentials in source code - Misconfiguration of IaC that results in destruction of databases
I'm not claiming that we have eliminated these dangers. Instead, our goal is to provide a platform for software teams to codify their security and compliance practices so that all developers on their team can avoid these dangers.
Good to see tools like this. However, are you not affected by the recent change in the Terraform licensing?
We have plans on our roadmap to support other IaC tooling if Hashicorp makes future changes to their licensing that prevents this arrangement.

We don't currently support the automatic pause of applications due to inactivity. However, we do support starting/stopping your app via the UI, API, or CLI.

Our current modules support running Python jobs using Fargate/ECS and Lambda (using Docker containers or packaged zip files).
Today, it is possible to pause workloads by destroying the app (nullstone down --app=). Obviously, that's not ideal and we do have plans to support pausing workloads to reduce costs.
Congrats on the launch... tbh, I have tried so many alternatives to this issue (as a Rails dev) and 'til today, I still find the oddest one of the all to be the only one straightforward enough to match the Heroku paradigm, that would be Hatchbox (which only dwells with Rails deployments). I will give this a shot, but I'm skeptical. Also, I want to thank the Dokku team, since recently I tried a few deployments and whi…

In terms of matching the simplicity of Heroku, I feel like Render is probably the closest thing to it.
I'm curious, anything in particular that you are skeptical about?

Essentially I'd like to build a docker image of code from a repository, and deploy and run it, and manage its lifecycle. Perhaps I could copy the CF template from the Copilot to do the same.

This is something we support as well. You're correct that most of our documentation (including quickstarts) focuses primarily on web-facing apps.
