24 alternatives to Free-friendly serverless support for AWS and GCP
Text: Hey HN, Zan here, cofounder of Coherence (withcoherence.com). We’re excited to announce the launch of serverless deployment options for both AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), both of which are free-tier compatible. This new functionality enables developers to deploy applications directly to AWS Lambda and GCP Cloud Run, leveraging the power of serverless architectures without intermediary platforms. We hope that these provide a way to use Coherence for low-volume or R&D type projects, and open up some interesting new use cases! You can learn more in our docs: AWS Lambda -…

Hey HN! I’m Zach, from Coherence (https://www.withcoherence.com/). We’re building software that provides an integrated way to write, preview, and deploy code from one simple configuration. Check out our explainer video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2YHVx8QsLg and a high level demo here: https://www.loom.com/share/072c2afd1099496298f69ab21fdf2820 We started Coherence because we found technology teams spent 30-40% of their time yak shaving and writing glue code, instead of building products our customers love. We don’t think every team…

Hey HN, Zach here, cofounder of Coherence (withcoherence.com). After over two years supporting customers deploying apps to AWS and GCP we’ve come to the conclusion that developers really want to own the customization and configurability that the public cloud provides without having to write and maintain all the glue code that goes with it. That’s why we’re launching CNC (https://github.com/coherenceplatform/cnc), an open-source framework that equips developers with the right tools to deploy applications with precision. Rooted in the principles of Infrastructure as Code…

Hi HN! During the last few years, I worked on a few applications built with Go, running on AWS Lambda. As I got to know the platform better, I started to find Go & Lambda to be a really productive combination. The applications were fast, and they ended up being much cheaper to run than what my team & I had built before. It’s probably not the best platform for _every_ application, but I was surprised at how much of our workload worked well on it. As we brought new engineers on to our team and helped them get up to speed with the stack, I found that we were covering a lot of the same topics…
