Ask HN: Just learned PiCloud will be gone, alternatives?

I've been heavily invested in PiCloud building my app for the past few months. Namely the Unique IP provided by s1 instances was a killer feature for me.

I decided to check their blog today and was shocked to learn they are going to be shutting down!

Where am I going to go now?! The PiCloud environments and unique ip per instance and queue to run parallel jobs in python was why I went with python.

I can't wait until February for the new company to come into effect. I need an alternative today.

It has taught me the lesson of depending too much on a single vendor. It really doesn't matter if they open source the picloud platform because my project hinges on the unique ip per instance and the ultra low pricing.

I feel totally devastated. All that hard work will now need to be modified with a new provider.
