How does this compare to Deis? https://deis.com/


Hi, I'm one of Last.Backend maintainers. We are cloud, not only PaaS. Cloud with CI/CD included by default.

But Deis is solution you need to deploy on your servers. With LB you don't need to use another hosting, setup it, deploy another solutions to get our features.


If a private self-hosted PaaS is what I want, then how does it compare to Deis Workflow?


Last.Backend a bit more complex solution. In main idea, with LB you'll can build, deploy and auto-deploy your apps from git repos, via push-2-deploy, or by hook from docker registry.

We are creating now our registry with approved apps templates, which you can deploy with 1 click.

This is a complex solution in the box. If you have more questions, I'll try to answer. BTW we are preparing our documentation to cover more possible questions.


Deis also does push-2-deploy. Still I'm not sure how they compare. From my experience with Deis I expect it to serve in pretty much the same niche like LB, but to be more mature and feature complete.


Yeah, Deis is good.. We inspected it all. We are a quite young, but have a big motivation to create a new good cloud solution. So we are always open to discuss and would like to hear your ideas and features you need in modern cloud.


I think a comparison page with other solutions out there would help point out the differences, because most people can't tell what the features are that you're providing and how they compare with the same feature with a different provider. Think a 3 column, 10 row table with the other 2 main competitors.


This will be the first we'll add on our home page. We'll be at next release. Thx!


All of the features you've described thusfar are also in RedHat's Openshift, which is a thick veneer ontop of Kubernetes. Can you comment on how you differentiate between them and last.backend?


As a good comment below - We'll add a table with our differentiation with most known tools. Just give us a bit time.


similarly, how does it compare with [dokku](http://dokku.viewdocs.io/dokku/)?


dokku and deis is tools you need to setup on your infrastructure. They provides you heroku like style push to deploy.

LB is complete platform build on top of kubernetes, support clusters, apps builds (like dokku and deis), apps build from git url, GitHub, ... , deploy from prepared templates (mongoldb cluster, elk cluster.. ) supports custom docker registry.. hook system and many other things.

LB Cloud is an apps cloud hosting comes with LB under the hood. Where you can buy compute cloud resources and receive all LB functionality with dashboard and other cool tools.
