Fly.io

Run full-stack apps on lightweight VMs close to users worldwide

About Fly.io

Fly.io is a public cloud for running full-stack applications on lightweight Firecracker microVMs — called Machines — in data centers around the world, close to your users. You can containerize almost any app with the fly CLI, scale Machines up, down or to zero automatically, and use built-in Anycast networking, private WireGuard connectivity and managed Postgres. Because apps run as real VMs rather than restricted functions, Fly.io suits latency-sensitive services, game servers and global APIs. It targets developers who want control without operating raw infrastructure. There is no free tier for new organizations; billing is pay-as-you-go after a short trial.
