Hey HN! We’re Thomas and Andrew, and we just built a Dutch auction exchange for cloud H100 rentals. It’s live at https://www.H100cloud.com. Auctions traditionally start at a base price and work their way up. That doesn’t work for cloud computing — would you ever want to be outbid and lose your data? Our Dutch auction model starts at a ceiling — $3.50/hr per H100. We lower prices every six hours until servers are picked up by buyers. We stop lowering them when prices reach a $2.20 floor. When you rent a server, the price is locked until you delete the server. You’ll never get…

It’s just a lot of work to actually run them and keep them up-to-date. The idea with Cloudron is simple: you install the Cloudron platform on your server. You can then install apps like NextCloud, GitLab, Rocket.Chat from the App…

Hi HN We are launching our 3rd startup. Our 1st was a PhD project turned into a startup which simulated public cloud costs before adoption - an example use-case was Disney trying to figure out how much it would cost to render their new movie on AWS and Google, using different configs, RIs vs on-demand, different services. That was PlanForCloud and was acquired by RightScale. Our 2nd startup was even more interesting - we built a public Container-as-a-Service cloud, but in a place where Amazon/Google could not enter - Iran! This grew fast, and was acquired by the Uber of Iran - the…
