Hyper.sh – Effortless Docker Hosting

I wonder is this is better for spinning up low traffic static sites than DO.

With DO you need to manage the host system, actually installing Docker. Patch Docker, patch the host.

Hyper handles that responsibility, allowing you to free up more time for app dev. "Our platform removes the need for you to manage a VM cluster or any container orchestration engine, so you can focus solely on your containers and get back to coding!"

Why would you want to containerize low traffic sites?

If it's a low traffic site, why not just build a small site and use a cheap shared host?

I was imagining a scenario where a site is pretty low traffic 90% of the time but occasionally has an article hit the front page of HN or a popular reddit sub.

Why "low traffic sites"?
