• Ask HN: Those of you who don't use AWS/Azure/GCP, what do you use for hosting?

  Have you considered using a provider that might help eliminate some of the operational burden of running your apps? At a very high level, when using the big 3 and hosting that's raw infra you're going to find ways to pay for _keeping things running smoothly_. At least the big three have happy paths to avoid some of the operational burden (hidden among many many foot guns). Full disclosure I work at noop.dev [1], a... - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

• Kubernetes Is Not the Point

  Disclosure I work for a company, Noop [1], which is the picture of the steak. As someone working on the marketing side of the endeavor, I see the shift the author describes. There are a handful of PaaS companies picking up where Heroku left off and in the enterprise world devops is evolving toward "platform engineering".

• Ask HN: Startup Devs -What's your biggest pain while managing cloud deployments?

  Full disclosure I work at a company [1] attempting to address this very problem. Without dedicated devops the challenge is allocating developer time to do the integration work required to get the various ops tools playing nicely together. In my experience that work is non-trivial and eventually leads to some form of dedicated ops. That is also part of a dynamic -- lots of tools available for solving these problems... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: Is there a place where one can learn about platform engineering

  Right now the term platform engineering seems to be a reflection of a collective intuition that software engineering teams need to have common patterns to simplify operating software. I think it stems in large part from the complexity associated with running software in a deployed environment. Often, every system, from development to deployment is mired in process. Tools and concepts have emerged to deal with... - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• I made a Bot.. How do I use it?

  Once you've created it you can host it locally (this means leaving the program running on your computer) or host it through a service online. I haven't personally tried this yet, but I believe you can use a site like heroku.com or other similar services. Source: 11 months ago

• Making AJAX Applications Crawlable? How to build a simple web service on Google App Engine to produce HTML Snapshots?

  I have my app hosted on Heroku, who (to my knowledge) are unable to offer a solution for running a Headless (GUI-less) Browser - such as HTMLUnit - for generating HTML Snapshots for Googlebot to index my AJAX content. Source: 12 months ago

• Engineers who have a personal website/blog, what are you using to host/generate it?

  Over the years, I’ve gone from Time Warner’s Road Runner, to Tumblr, to GitHub Pages, to Godaddy hosted WordPress. Though, after Godaddy messed up a migration, I switched to self-hosting on Heroku. I wrote my blog engine using Crystal. Reference: ejstembler.com. Source: about 1 year ago
