Laravel vapor

Hey Indie Hackers,

Anyone tried Laravel vapor? If so, what’s your experience been like and was there much work involved migrating to it?

Thank you!

    Haven't deployed with Vapor yet, but it looks great if you want to host on AWS but don't want to learn the ins and outs of hosting on AWS, it abstracts most of that stuff away for you.

    You have to be above a certain size for it to be worthwhile, most of my projects start on a DO droplet (AWS EC2 instance really), and then when and if they get traction I move to more dedicated AWS resource (RDS for the database, S3 for files etc).

    It's great that most Laravel apps don't require any code change to work in Vapor, so the option for a serverless autoscaling environment is within reach if and when you need it.

    Heroku is a great option too, it does require a little fiddling to get right, but mostly pretty straightforward stuff, and you don't have to pay the $40/month just to use it.

    The Volcano Classic Vaporizer has a sophisticated balloon bag filling system. The Volcano Classic Vaporizer allows users to take hits from surgical-grade silicone balloon bags in a more portable manner. Each bag is good for 50 to 100 uses. One dish of dried herbs can fill three to four balloon bags.https://www.vapor.com/products/volcano-vaporizer

      Yeah it's defintely a bit more expensive. Need to get a few paying customers first :) Looks like a nice product. Love the idea of no server updates and scaling without any hassle. Havnt looked at Heroku. Dont think my brain can handle another service
