💡 Bright idea
Im happy to see Ubicloud. Been through a lot trying to use AWS. Add Gmail and GitHub as signup/login alternatives.

hey - Of course. Our product hunt launch comes with 15,000 free minutes (standard-2 equivalent) for you to try out Kamal + Ubicloud. Please email us at and we'd be happy to apply the credit to your account! Also, if you have any questions or comments for us, please drop us a line and we'd be happy to chat anytime.
Looks great! The world needs more open alternative cloud providers.
Maker
Thank you Cihat :)
looks great. will definitely try it
Congratulations on launching Ubicloud! I'm really intrigued by the concept of an open-source cloud that can run anywhere, especially with the promise of significant cost savings on cloud services. I find the inclusion of managed Postgres and GitHub runners particularly exciting, as these features can really enhance productivity and streamline workflows for developers. It's impressive to see such a comprehensive set of services all in one platform! I'm curious, how does the self-hosting process work compared to your managed service? Additionally, are there any plans to expand the service offerings in the future? Keep up the amazing work—Ubicloud has great potential!

Hey Allen, thanks for your kind words! On the self-hosting, our current focus is on the managed service. This way, we can quickly collect feedback, iterate, and develop the self hosted version better. Essentially, anyone can setup their own Ubicloud at the moment, however, it requires some manual labor to configure everything. On the expanding the service offerings, we continuously collect feedback on new essential services. We definitely have more services in our roadmap. If you don't mind me asking, what services would you be interested in? Which ones would be a must have and some nice to haves?
Ubicloud offers an exciting solution with its open-source cloud services and flexible hosting options, especially with the potential to significantly reduce cloud costs. The range of features like managed Postgres and GitHub runners is a great addition. I’m curious how the platform scales when handling larger, more complex workloads—any plans for expanding those capabilities?
That sounds like a solid plan for expanding your cloud services. Adding managed Kubernetes and a CloudWatch alternative should be very beneficial. Are there any particular features or capabilities you're considering for the AI service, and how do you prioritize which services to develop next?
Congratulations on the launch of Ubicloud! This open-source alternative to AWS offers significant cost savings and flexibility. Will there be support for additional managed services like Redis or MongoDB, and are there plans to enhance the user interface for easier navigation and deployment management?
Maker
Thanks a lot ! We definitely have more services in our road map. We'll also immediately focus on making the app deployment easier and user friendly :)
Wow, really an ambitious product, and a contribution to the open source. Congratulations for the launch!
AWS can get super expensive if you’re not keeping an eye on it, so it’s nice to see something that offers similar features without the crazy costs. Congrats on launch.
As a VC heavily invested in dev tools, I've seen firsthand how cloud costs can cripple startups. That's why I'm thrilled to partner with Ubicloud. Their open-source alternative to AWS, coupled with Kamal integration, offers devs an affordable, flexible solution without compromising on performance. The potential for 3-10x cost savings is a game-changer. Excited to see Ubicloud democratize cloud computing for developers everywhere. Congrats on the launch team!
Congrats, Ubicloud team! The Kamal integration is a solid move for simplifying app deployment. Excited to see where this takes cloud infrastructure. Good luck! 🚀
