Joshua from the Fly.io side here, happy to answer any questions about this integration.

Very excited for this. Aside from general reliability concerns (esp. around deploys - not helped by cryptic failure messages). Lack of managed Postgres has been the main thing keeping me off fly (I use it for a couple of side projects, but nothing big yet). And blob storage would probably be next on my list (basically stateful things are the things I want managed) so also excited to see that's being worked on.

Do you have any details on pricing (for this new postgres offering) yet?

(supabase team jumping in)

this will follow our current pricing: https://supabase.com/pricing

there could be some changes once we get through the testing phase and after Fly have blob storage, but they will probably be more favorable to you, the developer

EDIT: Oh, perhaps it follows this table? https://supabase.com/docs/guides/platform/compute-add-ons

Original comment:

Hmm... this seems to say 8GB storage, 250GB bandwidth and 7 day backups (not point in time) for $25/month? + 7 day point in time backups for an extra $100/month? But it doesn't seem to mention anything about the CPU or RAM specs of the database server? And it also seems to bundle a bunch of other things, so it's hard to know how much of that is for the database server...

Will it be possible to choose different sized servers? And to buy managed Postgres on it's own without running the whole of superbase?

So $25 per month/DB and then usage based?

Is bandwidth also paid considering it will be only used in the internal Fly network?

Pretty cool for sharing as it can run in the browser.

So click on the 'Remix' button and you can play around with and run the article's contents.

Is there a way to play with this using Node.js as well?

Agreed. Amazingly, we released our version of this within the hour: https://reploy.io. And many other frameworks are doing the same thing. http://blog.ionic.io/announcing-ionic-deploy-alpha-update-yo....

My experience so far, 2 months into the program.

Many problems with the reimbursement program seem fixed. Stories from earlier rounds seem to have changed things, which is a sign that things can get better.

Given I had all the right information up front, I got the full amount returned on my first report. The housing allowances are very generous for Chile and things like requiring a housing contract is not exactly a 'pile of paper'. I finished my entire first report in a single morning, having kept myself organized ahead of time.

The legalization process for foreigners is also pretty slick. Try coming to Chile (or anywhere) and getting an ID card, bank account, and apartment in 2-3 weeks without government help. You may feel your time was wasted by RVA, but you win a lot of time if you choose to. If one doesn't feel that these things are worth his time, it may make sense to raise money from friends and family and stay home.

Regarding the RVA involvement there are many ways you can participate. For example, spend some hours teaching a local Ruby or web design. This sort of thing may actually help you work better too.

Above all the biggest problems are in communication, which seems to get better over time.

My feeling is that more accountability for teams (required demos) and the impact they have locally would help everyone build a better sense of trust. So would a stronger commitment from Startup Chile to communicate their goals clearly to new arrivals.
