Fly.io initiates Region-specific Machines pricing

Recently evaluated Fly.io for a company project but decided against it. I get the vibe that it fits the hobby/side project market more and that they're still in startup mode.

They did remove the hobby plan too

It can still be used for free as from my experience and the docs, monthly bills under $5 are free.

Can you link to the docs you’re talking about? The docs I see say you need to have a legacy account.

I can’t find it in their docs but they stated it in the announcement email for pay-as-you-go. I also have received a email saying they covered my ~$0.18 bill for the month. You could probably contact support for more clarification.

fwiw, we deploy on fly and are happy with it.

The reason to like fly is you get a 20-ish line yaml file that replaces (and I'm not exaggerating) thousands of lines of cloudformation. It automagically sets up the equivalent of a load balancer, autoscaling group, VPCs, db, vpn, etc. And it's trivial to replicate that environment per employee.

Plus the autoscaling using their firecracker stuff is fast.

I'd recommend most companies who aren't using tons of aws services take a hard look at fly.
