Nanobox is now free for developers (opens in new tab)

That's the highest requested feature! Should be available in Q1 of 2018.

Were you running a docker image on custom VMs on app engine? Just wondering how easy the transition was. Are you still running on Google cloud instances via nanobox?

It’s a layer on top. I think it simplifies deployment to various services that may or may not support Docker so well.

I can't give a full report, I strongly suggest that your try. But we are currently evaluating nanobox to see if we made the move from a another provider and for now it is very satisfying. Really easy to use and setup, very nice dashboard for monitoring your apps . Logs are present and easy to access but generally we prefer to use alternate/external solutions for log tracking (not related to nanobox) but it gives a good start if you can't externalize them. Deployment are as fast as other providers we tested. Deployments run on both local and server side, I will need more deployment to give a complete speed feedback. Scaling has never been easier. Honestly I really like the product and the team behind is very present on their slack channel to get you up and ready. So far so good.

Super easy. Deploys are very quick, it's able to do it all with no downtime.

Logs can be accessed through a Dashboard and they're streamed in live, very handy for debugging. You can also go back through the log history too though.

I highly recommend.

Nanobox does support Packet deployments:

- https://docs.nanobox.io/providers/hosting-accounts/packet/

Their full list of officially supported cloud providers is here: https://docs.nanobox.io/providers/hosting-accounts/

You can access it. The LE cert expired about a month ago though

Cert was renewed, but apparently there was a bug in how the system chose which cert to use? Not certain how it had access to the old one, still, though.

Fixed, now, either way.
