    Wait, are you saying it has dynamic vertical scaling of RAM?

  • This is phenomenal, great work!

    On the HN frontpage is Superlogical (I have no affiliation) right now, and I used the shell provided by the Kedge News demo to `ssh superlogical.jobs` from my browser on a phone on an instance started seconds earlier. :)

    I didn't immediately spot the durability contract for volumes -- local NVMe like Fly, or sitting on some underlying system like EBS?

  • A replicated SQLite is very cool! One question I would have is why expose that as the storage instead of the platform providing a managed storage API? I guess I might be concerned about replication lag and complexity for consumers with the replicated SQLite.

    Is it to have more sympathy for LLMs? More 1:1 with a local dev environment?

    although why would you use it for evil

  • Hey this is amazing! I see the sqlite db is replicated but how does it handle multiple instances as writers? Curious if the underlying sqlite engine is syzy or if there's other restrictions to be aware of

  • This looks awesome! I really love the clean and minimalist website design too.

    I've been excited about using (lib)krun as a drop in replacement for crun/runc for container engines, to make them run qemu microvms. I'm exploring what it could look like if every process of an OS ran like that. I envy you, would love to work on something like this!

  • Built in replicated database and filesystem is pretty rad. Fly leaves this as an exercise for the user.

    You should license the backend to enterprises that want a cheaper/lighter weight option to kubernetes for the surge of agentically coded internal apps.

    Caught my eye with this one. I'll be taking a closer look as this is one of those "I'd rather let someone else do it." type infrastructure bits :)
