UpCloud vs. wasmCloud

If you're looking for a cost-effective solution then this is a good choice, be sure to keep on top of your balance! The 100% uptime is also a nice addition, although not unique in a cloud hosting service.

If you want to start pivoting your legacy code into a serverless paradigm this is the platform to target. If you want to start moving away from walled gardens and back into a space where code isn't centralized, costs can be offset by utilizing customer or edge hardware this is the platform to focus on. If you want a model that will scale well past many of the existing serverless frameworks, that won't get caught up in the security weaknesses of current paradigms this is what you need to invest in. If you want modern code to interact with legacy code in a safe way that doesn't expose vulnerabilities you can't patch against wasmCloud is awesome. If you want to write simple code that can jump from cloud to cloud to the user or edge node check it out!

• Pricing
• Ease of use - super easy to manage existing servers and deploy new ones
• Great customer service

• Host density of workloads
• Streamlined security approach to writing code and reducing bloat
• Interoperability of modules written in different languages

• The billing reports are quite hard to read, could be simplified
• A control panel function would be useful
• The re-billing process could be better, not so cut throat if you miss a payment!

• Simplified open-source model for on-boarding devs, i.e. bare host no elixir/GUI
• Home-labbers guide to wasmCloud
• Spark more community involvement for capability providers

wasmCloud is still in the early stages of development but the product is rapidly evolving and stabilizing and I feel it will be a preferred way of deploying and managing remote, distributed applications in the future.

The core team is extremely responsive in their provided channels. From slack to github issues, there is never a long wait for feedback or guidance.

We trialed UpCloud to see if it would be better than DigitalOcean but for our needs, it was not. On DigitalOcean once a droplet is created, almost no thought needs to go into maintenance, outages, or other reliability-based issues.

The team is incredibly helpful and informative about the product - I have not needed to use their professional services thus far.

• The low cost means you don't really need to worry about pricing
• To us as a business it was not as useful as DigitalOcean
