The pricing is misleading. You say on the landing page that the free plan is €0 per month, but in reality you still have to pay for the control plane nodes. The cheapest control plane node is €3.29 per month; if you want high-availability - you need to double that.

So in reality you would pay €20 per month for the standard plan and also extra for control plane nodes.

Also, with this Terraform module I can setup a similar setup without paying any extra fee for your service: https://github.com/hcloud-k8s/terraform-hcloud-kubernetes/tr...

The Terraform module takes care of ingress, certificates, metrics etc

Anyway, congrats for shipping

trolla··on Ask HN: Docker, Kubernetes, Openshift, etc – how do you deploy your products?
I can recommend Rancher. I’ve used Openshift, Kubernetes and Rancher - so far, Rancher has been the best experience.

trolla··on The careless errors of credit reporting agencies
There already are some companies in that space that are using big data and machine learning for credit scoring. A few that come to mind: http://hellosoda.com/ http://bigdatascoring.com/

In case of Hello Soda they are using social media data for credit scoring.

PS I'm not associated with any of these companies.

trolla··on The Guardian goes all-in on AWS public cloud after OpenStack 'disaster’
I’ve used Openstack at my current $dayjob and I’d say that Openstack is probably one of the buggiest solutions that I’ve ever used. Even simple things like stopping or resizing VM-s sometimes failed completely and the VM came unusable after that. Feature wise it’s also lacking. Seems that Openstack spends more time/money on marketing and generating hype than creating a good solution. I’d even say that Docker has a somewhat similar problems, they spend more on hype/marketing than creating a stable and usable solution. However, at least Docker is more usable right now than a year ago, the same can’t be said about Openstack.
