The whole google cloud platform doesn't get enough cred. Would be nice to add it to the list.

- dabeeeenster 10y ago+1 You can run a fairly decent amount of traffic on free-tier App Engine
- ngrilly 10y agoI agree, but it really misses a free tier for the SQL database (similar to Heroku Postgres limited to 10k rows for example).
- Kipters 10y agoAzure is also missing
- Vhaeraun 10y agoI did take a look at Azure, but it looks complicated. Probably for someone who has more experience and actually have used it, it's not, but I couldn't easily find how I can get a simple VM, and when I used the calculator for the VM, the price was almost two times more expensive comparing to DigitalOcean or Linode. I see that there are many people using Azure and probably it's a great ecosystem, but I wanted to focus on easier to use tools, that will be more friendly to beginner web developers. I might think of a section for more advanced options (not a single hosting, but a whole service that includes multiple tools) where Azure would be a great fit.
- Kipters 10y agoFor an application you may not even need their VMs, an AppService instance may be enough and potentially cost less. BTW, you can find them on the "New" menu on the left
