TierHive - Next generation nat vps hosting - Your home lab in the cloud
Hi, I am Anthony and I am a Co-Founder in a small team that built TierHive - an Hourly VPS Platform
HI I am Anthony,
Honestly, I like servers more than marketing, but if the 8129 podcasts I have listened too on my daily walk have told me anything, I need to be on ProductHunt. I don't know if I am using it right; please forgive my mistakes!
I have a background in computers that goes all the way back to 1984 when I had to stand on a stool to reach the Commodore 64's in my parents' 8-bit computer shop, I have run support and infrastructure departments for large companies like EDS/HP, and worked for companies in the Hosting Industry as well as owned one for 10 years.
If you need your floppy disk drive repaired, I can do that, if your power supply is buzzing, I can fix that, if you need your servers racked and cabled, i can do that, if you need 1000 physical servers world wide to start deploying at once and talk back to yorur billing system all with unique charactoristics, I can do that, I have no idea what I specialise in to be honest, but if you need something and its computer related, give me 30 minutes I will figure it out, I can even write functional yaml in notepad if you want.
I am the person you want but don't know you need yet.
As part of a small team, I helped to build TierHive, an Hourly VPS (NAT VPS) platform that you can use for development or hobbyist activities.
I have actually had this as a personal dream for a lot of years. I always felt the cookie-cutter way of deploying a virtual server was tired and backwards, so we got to work on this as one of our projects at Kernel Keepers LTD.
You get your network first, we allocate a full /24 subnet to you, and then you plonk your services on top of that, think of it like a homelab in the cloud.
Think of it like a totally self-managed infrastructure; DIY SupaBase, it's somewhere between Saas and PaaS but not 100% either, and the pricing.... it starts at as little as $0.000135 per hour (Free tokens to try on sign up, and a $5 minimum top up) if you don't use it you pay nothing, if you need 10 databases and 6 compute servers running for an hour, you only need to pay for the hour, then back to nothing.
