Whats up Cain! Just hanging out in the new year watching out for chef
whats that did here serverless hosting there are like vercel. cloudflare, serverless, aws lambda etc
I have not, never heard that term. Is it where you can just deploy like a docker container or something?
I can't really picture how huge that thing is going to be. I measured and it looks huge. Hard to picture it
serverless containers are different from serverless functions, example fly.io and vercel while fly.io provides container where i can deploy anything from go, js, php anything while on vercel i am more limited to JS functions.
yeah, instead of your own server, it helps in some specific scenarios i deal with.
Oh yah. They don't have a privacy oriented VPN. I just use it for testing and stuff, nothing serious
Like? Example?
Got any suggestions? Also, how's your new year?
check above comments
Oh, got it. Thanks. Way above my pay grade
Got it. That makes sense, just searched jt too for more info. I have only ever used vps and dedicated at this point
Looks like it's a lot easier to work with quick deploys of certain things. Almost point and clickish
what are talking about? they are rather cheap and ofcourse comes with a free trial even some got free plan for like a container running 24x7 doing my microservice tasks.
With a big enough 2x4, you can flip a house
Yeah that may have been it!
I meant way beyond my level of knowledge to understand what they do, unless someone explains to me like I am a 5 year old. And, I didn't wanna bother you
oh okay, i was looking for some new suggestions been with some good old platforms, was thinking of trying someone else.
not technically there are times you have to configure a dockerfile and have the platform do everything for you and there are times you have to build the image on your pc and push it to the container.
Maybe time to consider that
Also someone was saying that Opera VPN isn't exactly a VPN. Can't confirm though.
lol you can ask me, i have like 4-5 services running on these serverless containers, it's easy and super reliable like haven't seen a downtime more in years, the total downtime over two years wouldn't even come close to 5 minutes. And the best part, it costs almost nothing for me to utilize them.
Is this what the free tier of AWS micro or something does? I hear a lot of people used to always suggest some micro instance there
Oh. But what are they? Like what advantage do they have over a server running Docker containers?
every browser base VPN claiming them VPN is half baked truth, they are just http/https proxy at best. Also i don't use browser based VPNs including opera's, i instead set the warp in proxy mode and use proxy switcher addon on firefox if i want to test something. As always connected to VPN isn't ideal for me this thing helps me greatly.
management and security, also the performance i get there is amazing for almost everything i do there. And ofcourse they are fairly easy to build and deploy something from git or a single configuration file.
Hi!
aws has lambda for serverless functions and stuff for free, for container part i will end up paying for the ec2 instance even for smallest one it will cost around $1.7 /m for me so i usually don't go with aws.
Hi @BasToTheMax how's it going on?
That's something I should consider as well. It's just that, when I have to test some stuff to say block VPNs on my website or scripts, I just quickly fire up Opera
