What is Shelly Cloud? Platform for hosting your Ruby and Rails apps (hosted in Europe). Shelly Cloud is significantly cheaper than other PaaS hosting providers. You save money by getting all services needed to run your application from one provider. We run our own servers, so there is no "Amazon tax" included in our prices. You pay only for what you use with per-hour metered billing.
Hasura and Shelly Cloud belong to "Platform as a Service" category of the tech stack.
Some of the features offered by Hasura are:
- Stack-agnostic
- Cloud-agnostic
- Git push to deploy
On the other hand, Shelly Cloud provides the following key features:
- Designed for Ruby and Rails
- Git-based workflow
- Easy scaling
We wanted to save as much time as possible when writing our back-end, therefore Apollo was out of the question, we went for an auto-generated API instead. Hasura looked good in the beginning, but we wanted to retain the ability to add a few manual resolvers and modifications to auto-generated ones, which ruled out Hasura. Postgraphile with its Plug-In architecture was the right choice for us, we never regretted it!
