Congratulations on launching! Would it make sense to think of this like Cloudflare Workers but for any application running in a Docker container? Are there any restrictions on outbound connections?


There is some overlap with CloudFlare Workers. The big, practical difference is that you can put apps on fly.io that abuse CPUs, write to disk, accept TCP traffic, etc.

Most people we've worked with want to run run apps they've already written (or open source like https://github.com/h2non/imaginary).


It's closer to Google's Cloud Run, Heroku, or Fargate since we don't constrain you to a framework and the restrictions that come with it.
