Those numbers don't account for people still under the rubble.

"The sad thing" is that 100k+ humans were brutally killed and the lives of 2 million others were destroyed. The second sad thing is that Germany will never learn. Also, I'd suggest you look up the definition of the word "terrorist".

That's for "file storage", aka Deta Drive. Deta Base, our NoSQL doesn't have a limit.

We don't support Go on Micros yet. Not enough demand atm but we love Go and plan to support it once we have the capacity.

Apps published on Deta Space will use our own payment solution; we will process the payment and send the dev their cut. For now, Ad-supported apps will not be published on Space. Space apps are reviewed manually.

We will offer either a simple purchase/subscription mechanism & our own SDK (for more complex use cases).

Offering a 0-ops & 0-liability experience for any dev globally is pretty attractive. There's more to this that I cant talk about yet unfortunately.

Re:Deta Cloud – Developer-friendly cloud platform on Friday January 14, 2022 @10:55AM (#29935977)
Hi, Deta Space is very new and a lot is still is happening behind the scenes. We're mostly running a closed alpha with some devs from our community. Once we launch Space in beta/GA, we will be announcing more about "the cut". It's likely to be <15% (no infra cost, etc).

I understand this is all vague atm but everything is still WIP. We're not ready for prime-time yet.

(btw, this is not a "show hn", a kind person thought to share us here)

Re:Deta Cloud – Developer-friendly cloud platform on Friday January 14, 2022 @10:20AM (#29935488)
I remember Meteor as a framework first. Deta is a platform and allows devs to build apps using their favorite frameworks (mostly) and then deploy & monetize them without any ops.

I trust you heard "no ops" before but Deta uses a new approach that allows us to scale millions of apps to billions of users efficiently. Take a look at our pilot here: https://deta.space/

Re:Deta Cloud – Developer-friendly cloud platform on Friday January 14, 2022 @10:12AM (#29935393)
There's more to this than one would think :)
Re:Deta Cloud – Developer-friendly cloud platform on Friday January 14, 2022 @10:01AM (#29935252)
It's an exciting Space in its infancy (IMO). We will be looking into WASM soon!

Hey HN, Deta CEO here. Glad to see Deta on HN! Hapy to answer any question (although a bit sick today, so apology for the short and duplicated answers).

Because many of you are wondering about our business model: we're working on Deta Space, which helps devs publish & monetize their web apps with no ops, and we take a small cut. Deta Space is still in the early pilot stage.

Learn more about Space here: https://www.deta.sh/space & here https://deta.space/.

Have a great day!

Re:Deta Cloud – Developer-friendly cloud platform on Friday January 14, 2022 @09:43AM (#29935017)
This is for our "app marketplace" (WIP) which we use to promote the apps themselves. We also say look at these cool apps running on Deta.

Re:Deta Cloud – Developer-friendly cloud platform on Friday January 14, 2022 @09:41AM (#29934968)
That's a valid concern. We're well funded, so you don't have to worry for a few years. The way we will monetize is through Deta Space. Deta Space helps devs scale & monetize their apps without ops and we take a small cut.

We're working on this atm and will be sharing soon. Have been running for a while without official limits with very little issues. (99% of our devs don't reach our planned limits).

Deta Cloud (deta.sh) is a playground for independent devs, it's not a full-fledged cloud platform. For production scale and monetization, we're working on Deta Space: https://www.deta.sh/space & https://deta.space/

Re:Show HN: WebCrate – an open-source social bookmarking tool on Wednesday August 25, 2021 @12:58PM (#28303946)
We give every app instance it's own server (VM) and database. It is completely isolated from all other instances of the same app. The developer has no access to your app instances or their data. Take a look at our sister product for the technical details "Deta Cloud" (deta.sh)

We don't have much information on Space as we're still in the alpha stage.

Re:Show HN: WebCrate – an open-source social bookmarking tool on Wednesday August 25, 2021 @12:53PM (#28303907)
Deta Space is still in developer alpha. We have a long way to go!

Deta Cloud (deta.sh) is a PaaS like Heroku. Deta Space (deta.space) on the other hand is something new we call the "personal cloud". We will announce more soon.

Re:Show HN: WebCrate – an open-source social bookmarking tool on Wednesday August 25, 2021 @12:51PM (#28303887)
Hi, CEO of Deta here. On Deta Space, self-hosting means that once the app is installed in your own personal cloud, you have full ownership of the instance and it's data. Not the developer.

We use GA in our dashboard but the apps themselves do not contain tracking. We aim to remove all tracking in the future. GA only collects web pages visits (anonymously).
