Fly.io is a platform for running applications and databases close to users by deploying containers across a global network of around 35 regions. Founded in 2017, it runs standard OCI/Docker containers with usage-based, pay-as-you-go pricing and a 99.9% uptime SLA. It targets developers building latency-sensitive, distributed apps, offering non-expiring trial credit rather than a perpetual free tier and community support. Because it runs portable containers, vendor lock-in is low and data export is straightforward. It is SOC 2 compliant.
