Chose Sanity
- There is no fear of hitting a limit and suddenly having to start paying 500$ per month when you have been using it for free for a while - You don't have to worry about infrastructure because datasets are available as a service - With an open-source UI based on React, you don't …
In our team we use Platform.sh mostly while sites are in developmental phase. Then we do a lift and shift to either Acquia or AWS depending on the type of sites we have. Platform.sh is really cost effective and more fluid in terms of Continuous Development hence the usage. …
Suited for - Headless CMS - when your blogs are less in number and you want to only work within free tier - when you only want to use their dedicated location to host your CMS Less appropriate - when you need to host your cms on your cloud
In our organisation we are the only team that uses Platform.sh to host any site. This was a cost effective way for us as we were using Acquia Cloud earlier for these websites. We mostly use Platform.sh for those sites which are always in development as it is simpler and faster to handle these operations in Platform.sh. Then we do a lift and shift to Acquia as we move more towards the go live and post production maintenance side.
Platform.sh is not for beginners in my opinion. It has a good amount of learning curve in my opinion.
As this is a PaaS, teams habituated with cloud infrastructure may miss the server side support from their cloud teams. I believe you will have to work on server bugs more on your own.
During normal maintenance periods, integrations may fail if you are working on your sites in that time, in my experience.
- There is no fear of hitting a limit and suddenly having to start paying 500$ per month when you have been using it for free for a while - You don't have to worry about infrastructure because datasets are available as a service - With an open-source UI based on React, you don't have any limits to what you can build - For some reason, I could not find a service that provided schema as code before Sanity, and I cannot understand how anyone could think this was a good idea.
In our team we use Platform.sh mostly while sites are in developmental phase. Then we do a lift and shift to either Acquia or AWS depending on the type of sites we have. Platform.sh is really cost effective and more fluid in terms of Continuous Development hence the usage. After said development is done, we generally lift and shift to Acquia for more content heavy sites and to AWS for more transaction oriented sites.
