Highly recommend fly.IO. I have stopped reaching for anything else. For go servers, I just copy their Go starter template and deploy it. It is the fastest way I’ve found to get a project up. You can immediately get into an iteration loop and build tests and even staging environments around it inside of a days worth of work.

I don’t know. For most other sites, I’d agree with you. But with fly.io, it might actually be better to ask here.

I’m sure tptacek has some good summarizing paragraph or couple of sentences somewhere on some HN comment (to succinctly describe fly.imo)

devil's advocate :

ok. I went to fly.io.

here's what it says.

"Deploy App Servers Close to Your Users

Run your full stack apps (and databases!) all over the world. No ops required. "

Now, what does that mean?
