Iron? #2

Closed drsharp closed 6 years ago

drsharp commented 6 years ago

I've used Iron.io for a long time as a serverless architecture to run Ruby. And I just saw this: http://open.iron.io/ which on their github repo includes Ruby examples (such as: https://github.com/iron-io/functions/tree/master/examples/hello).

Shouldn't you add this to the list? Or even call out that there are serverless FaaS options available for Ruby today at Iron?

Hi, thank you for pointing this out. I'll create a new section "existing FaaS providers" and I'll add it to the list.

I was not aware of this, Much appreciated

You are welcome!

@drsharp can you pls confirm if I understand correctly that the provider Iron.io scheme of pricing for FaaS is like a prepaid plan for computing ?

https://try.iron.io/pricing-worker-monthly/

So if I need just some hobby project I'll pay $4.99 even if used only ore request per month ?

So it's not like AWS lambda - pay for what you use in 100ms ?

Thank you for clarification

https://github.com/equivalent/we_demand_serverless_ruby/pull/3/files based on a discussion with Dave from Iron.io customer support chat window :)

@equivalent yes, it's a different price model... it's not a "per-cpu" model as much. They used to have a free playground account, but since they were acquired (see https://blog.iron.io/full-circle-iron-io/ ) they dropped that, which is a bummer. It's still a great platform and I continue to use them. 👍

thank you for sharing that. I'll close this issue ticket now as I've added section about it to https://www.serverless-ruby.org/ If there's anything I've missed pls let me know (or PR)

thx again
