We use render at Caido.

<rant>I am pretty pissed off by their per user per team pricing that was introduced early this year. Specially since you still need to pay for multiple teams to get network segmentation between envs WTF</rant>.

BUT on the compute, it is on par with fargate. I dont know how you arrived at 4x the cost but lets take 1 vcpu + 2GB ram. Render is 25$/month and fargate is 35.50$/month. For 2 vcpu and 4gb, render is at 85$/m and Fargate is 71.10$/m.

For our business, I am considering migrating off render within the next year. Unsure where to yet, I would like to avoid using another PaaS but managing a k8s cluster doesnt appeal to me so still looking.



Co-founder of Porter (https://porter.run) here - Porter brings that easy PaaS experience to a k8s cluster that's running in your own cloud account (and manages it for you so you don't have to). We specialize in serving the segment of users who don't want to manage devops fully in-house but are outgrowing their existing PaaS providers.

We are offering a credit program for early stage startups that you can apply for here. Happy to fast track your application! https://porter.run/for-seed-stage-startups


Network segmentation between projects/environments will land in the next year. Any chance you'd be up for a call so I understand the use case better? Email in profile.


Landing network segmentation between env should have been done before introducing per user per team pricing.......... I feel like as a PaaS I should not have to explain this.


Depends on what parts of PaaS you like or not, but you might like https://www.Flightcontrol.dev which streamlines Fargate deployments. Also static sites, preview environments, etc. (I’m Flightcontrol cofounder/CEO)


Oops, I used Fargate Spot pricing on us-west-2. Thanks for the correction.
