Dear Deis team,

Some URLs in deis.com is unreachable.

I know it's no longer maintained. So our team are migrating to a new platform right now.

We still need the resources. Please, please don't break the web easily.

I'll appreciate your kind help.

Hey @yuya-takeyama,

We apologize for any inconvenience shutting down deis.com caused. We shared our end of life plans a few months ago, and you can read more about it here.

In the meantime, happy to see if we can help you complete your transition to a new platform. I can send you a link to the source code and give you a set of instructions on how to install from source. Would that help?

Hi @bacongobbler

Sorry to bother you here, but I don't how to contact someone from Deis otherwise, so I'll use this recent issue.

It is very sad to learn that deis.com has shut down, there was valuable blog posts at deis.com/blog/. Was they migrated somewhere ? I could not find them on web.archive.com

@bacongobbler Hi, Could you post those source code and instructions here? We need to install deis for a legacy app.

idealhack commented 6 years ago

For who are still using Deis, use the Hephy fork instead.

bacongobbler commented 5 years ago

Source code for the Deis Workflow chart is available here, with the corresponding documentation found here. Thanks!

In terms of the website, the Deis team (including myself) are now part of the Azure team at Microsoft. We were acquired back in early 2017.

Because we were a small team, we decided to focus our efforts on other tools in the Kubernetes ecosystem like Helm, Service Catalog and Draft. We shared our team's plans to shut down our supporting infrastructure (including our CI infrastructure, deis.com and charts.deis.com) on the blog, which has since shut down but can be found on web.archive.org.

[why] the sudden disappearance?

We continued to maintain the project for over a year and a half after announcing we were ending support. We gave existing users a significantly large window of time to consider migrating (or to consider maintaining a fork, as the Hephy team did), as well as plenty of warning what was happening throughout the entire process. It certainly wasn't sudden if you ask me 😆

As for the Hephy fork, it's a fork of Deis Workflow where a group of community members are continuing to move the project forward after deis.com went dark. You can find the project site here: https://web.teamhephy.com/

Let me know if you have further questions.

To answer @Nodraak's earlier question

Was they migrated somewhere ? I could not find them on web.archive.com

I looked into this when we heard the news that were were shutting down. Unfortunately due to licensing agreements with how some of the blog posts were authored, we are unable to re-distribute the site (and with that, the blogs).
