Clusters ready to deploy you applications on. It is meant for companies who want their own private infra, but do not want to maintain it. It is multi cloud, with a focus on europe.

Our secret weapon is “Menno”: an assistant which helps you setting up the cluster and deploying applications. We use the assistant for handson demo’s and workshops and got some really good feedback on it.

Thanks!! Speed indeed would be nice. Could go for 3.5 then. the enclosure looks better and keeps dust away from the buildplate. I think i will eventually go with core one then.

Is it worth the upgrade to 3.x? I have the mk3s for years now and I love it. No issues at all. Bought it after I finished my freelance job at Ultimaker, as I had to return my S3. I wanted a premium experience, which prusa sure has. Considering upgrading the 3 or buy a new prusa core something something.

Second hand market for prusa printers is decent as well.

I am still waiting for e17. I stuck to e16 for a long time until ubuntu got a thing which was much more convenient than gentoo.

I had the classic setup with the apache helicopter on the background and virtual desktops with preview. On MacOS however.

To this day i am still using a single screen, with virtual desktops ordered the same way.

Is it a team really? Most commits seem to come from one user "carrotindustries". I am really interested in an Open Source CAD application with good UX, this one looks great. But I don't want to spend too much time on an application maintained mostly by a single developer. The risk of it being abandoned is too high.

Demo fase, showing the branded version to potential clients. We iterate on it with their feedback.

If Dock runs on AWS or Cloudflare infra it is, by definition, a no go for me and many others here. Would like to get an answer on that.

FWIW: I use scaleway far a medium sized project and find it a good experience. Of course there are bugs and some things could be better. But support is good and the responses to bugs in their terraform provider are quick.

Also using bunny.net, happy so far.

Only thing I am missing is to create mailboxes (not transactional mail) on those two providers. I needed a third one for that.

You guys are awesome! I hope you will succeed.

Any way to migrate my data from slack to Dock?

I was about to ask the same thing. I saw mentioning of gdpr, feels like at least some europeans are involved.

However: I don’t want to have my data in the US for at least 3 years. For businesses outside the US: they simply cannot have their data in US anymore.

Build european/non-us would be a great argument to use this product.

And yet google generates around $1.9miljon revenue per employee per year. Which is a lot, almost as good as competitors.

Totally different experience here! For a project I wanted to try “euro cloud”. Something comparable to digital ocean. No need for hyperscaler functionality.

It has been great. Good terraform provider and reliable service. I like their console, although the design feel very vaporwave to me.

Of course stuff can be better, but it is rapidly improving. The way they implemented grafana + user management was shit. But that’s fixed. Grafana still feels bolted on however. And login is a bit weird with their dedibox or whatever button next to the cloud offering. But no where near as confusing as aws is!

Also bumped on a bug in their terraform provider, found a related bug report, contributed some info and it was fixed within two weeks.

Quite happy so far. Running serverless sql, serverless containers. Secrets management and some iam config. No big stuff but quite sure it is capable to run a decently sized saas.

Except that it now has ten times the number of reminders popping up to please subscribe for premium, even though I already have the world maps package, so they got some of my money already.

Of course, I agree.

My point is that the parent I was replying to replied to “only hobbyists pay full price on aws”. The parent was expecting to get a discount on a 10k monthly bill. It is a lot of money, but not to AWS. You probably wont get (much) discount on 10k a month.

To be fair, for aws that is hobbyist numbers. We (400 people data company) pay 10 times that amount. Let alone big enterprises.

We do get discount, but it wont make it cheap.
