Show HN: Yet another web hosting service, only cheaper and smarter

A while ago I asked "Can cloud infrastructure become truly automatic?" in this HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19080186 I got mixed responses, but I was curious to try the idea.

Imagine you wrote a simple project - NodeJS backend + database + frontend. How much effort and money would it take to get that project online? Many novice programmers like students wouldn't even know where to start.

I created a new platform where you as a developer are not exposed to the underlying infrastructure at all. Instead you just upload your code and the platform does its magic to setup your application to run.

Imagine a platform where you don't have to setup any low level details like servers, load-balancers, or DNS, but you still get fun tools like logs, analytics, metrics, CICD pipeline, and much more out of the box. To top that off, your application gets deployed in multiple servers around the world, so anyone can access your site from anywhere with the same speed.

There is a very early beta version that you can check out right now. Docs here: https://plugins.quadnix.com/docs/introduction.html

Do you have a project that you want to get online? Have feedback / questions? Please reach out.



I am curious to know how each application is isolated, and how a shared database would work in this type of infrastructure.


Hello zizee...good questions. 1. I haven't solved to keep the applications isolated. That is in my roadmap though. I am thinking about putting some sort of security-group rules or something similar. 2. We don't support databases now, but again it is in my roadmap. Each DB will be separate though, not shared. It will be deployed just like a normal server specifically for your app.
