I've deployed a number of Laravel apps in both traditional and serverless architecture. I have to say I'm pretty excited about Laravel cloud. Not that deploying Laravel is hard, but for a full fledged app there's a number of moving parts that I'd rather not deal with.

Plus if you're building apps for clients handing off the whole hosting side of things sounds amazing.

I'm fairly excited too. It seems the target is "Vercel but for PHP" and the lack of a Vercel/Netlify-style deployment option has pretty consistently been used as an argument against using PHP/Laravel at my agency. I've already started seeing longtime Node/Typescript devs showing interest in Laravel and Laravel Cloud will likely only increase that.
