@joseppudev@kiwicopple Fun fact, my supabase databases were all online and functional. I could connect directly and query no problem.
The api's and auth were all down, but it seems our databases are properly hydrated and energized 👍
@thdxr Don’t just take their word at face value though, you often have to look for the problem behind the (feature) request.
Truly understand and solve their problem even if that means a different solution than they might ask for.
@checkraisefold_@dobroslav_dev I assume you are referring to aws and the like? I would agree, those have the same problem.
Services like Railway, Modal, Supabase, Fly, Vercel etc do not afaik. We use Supabase and Modal, can confirm they are amazing and worth the small premium on the resources.
@dobroslav_dev Sure, if you want to learn about it then for sure.. but then why are we comparing price?
Some of them are really cheap, if you don't include the price of your time. Like I said there are scenarios where it makes sense, but a lot of times those hours cost a lot more than $95
@dobroslav_dev I feel like this is often missed in this discussion. You pay for the "managed" part of it. Unless you are training LLM's, or get to quite decent scale, payroll makes compute cost completely irrelevant.
@dobroslav_dev If one person spends a couple of hours a month on maintaining that server it becomes (much) more expensive.
Sure, with scale or if no funding this might be different, but for many companies paying for managed infra is the smart choice and cheaper option.
@kepano I mean yes, but in a company you either set up a CMS so people can update themselves, or you are copy pasting word docs into flat files as getting them to update files in version control will not happen..
There are better options than Wordpress though.
