Fun fact: we also built our cloud platform based on Fly.io’s ideas, but we supercharged it with a custom Rust filesystem.

This platform powers full-stack applications for business users, including Playcode.ai.

This is phenomenal, great work! On the HN frontpage is Superlogical (I have no affiliation) right now, and I used the shell provided by the Kedge News demo to `ssh superlogical.jobs` from my browser on a phone on an instance started seconds earlier. :) I didn't immediately spot the durability contract for volumes -- local NVMe like Fly, or sitting on some underlying system like EBS?

Thanks for the kind words! > I didn't immediately spot the durability contract for volumes -- local NVMe like Fly, or sitting on some underlying system like EBS? Persistent volumes use local NVMe that continuously syncs to object storage, so a similar architecture to Fly Sprites. It automatically recovers from host failures (with on-demand lazy restore), and you can manually migrate stable members to another region i…

Gotcha, interesting. I would love it to death if there were a way to run some CLI, maybe on the system, that gave you information on the current replication state of the disk!

That's rude. It's a shameless plug and I'm happy I have discovered that project thanks to that shameless plug

What does it mean?

lovecraftian horrors while you chase obscure bugs. and no, llms won't help because there was not enough lovecraftian stuff to train them on.

This looks awesome! I really love the clean and minimalist website design too.

I've been excited about using (lib)krun as a drop in replacement for crun/runc for container engines, to make them run qemu microvms. I'm exploring what it could look like if every process of an OS ran like that. I envy you, would love to work on something like this!
