Hoy offers a cloud-like management experience for baremetal servers, aimed at delivering the same ease and flexibility you'd find with services like Digital Ocean and Vercel but for your own hardware.<p>Baremetal servers can be significantly more cost-effective and performant compared to traditional cloud services, and they often come with generous bandwidth quotas.<p>The tool supports servers from any provider, including Equinix and Hetzner.<p>Here's what you can do once your servers are connected:<p>- Deploy Node.js and Python applications<p>- Set up static websites<p>- Manage databases such as PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis<p>- Install open source stacks like Wordpress, Elasticsearch, and RabbitMQ<p>For developers, it has automatic git deployments creating a Vercel/Netlify-like environment on your own hardware.<p>With hoy cli, deploying an app will be as easy as "hoy deploy"<p>Using bare metal servers means very low predictable & fixed costs, better performance and eliminates surprise billings.<p>Hoy is aimed towards large cloud like setups offering distributed compute storage and networking on your own hardware instead of being a VPS management system (Like caprover etc).<p>You can try it out now with our demo, no signup required: <a href="https://demo.hoy.sh/" rel="nofollow">https://demo.hoy.sh/</a><p>Happy to answer any questions.
Interesting gap in the market.<p>You need someone who is price conscious enough to forgo the cloud. Either because they are spending millions and want to be spending 100,000 or they are some small solo dev who is being tight. Taking the former example, if they are spending millions, they probably would be looking at Kubernetes for this. Even if more complicated, it is more industry standard. For example getting SOC2 compliance there are guides and so on, and there are training courses, and you can pull in a consultant. I am interesting on who the target is for this.

looks like a nice idea, if I understand it correct. Do you have any ideas how much you would charge or for which features you would charge or have a free tier?
