What is anynines?

anynines is build on top of the Open Source project Cloud Foundry. It offers Platform as a Service (PaaS) functionality hosted on European servers by Amazon Web Services (AWS).

What is a Platform as a Service (PaaS)?

Platform as a Service is an evolution in hosting and running your applications. It allows you to create production ready databases and other services with one command. In addition you are able to deploy and scale your application vertically and horizontally with the same simplicity.

What will it cost?

The pricing is based on the RAM you have assigned to your application instances. For example one application instance with 64 MB RAM will cost 3.13 € per month. In regard to services we will offer different price plans depending on the service configuration, RAM and storage usage. Find more information on our pricing page.

Is there any contract duration?

You pay for what you are using. You are only charged for running applications and services.

Where is it hosted?

We are hosting on AWS servers located in Europe.

What languages/runtimes are supported?

Since we are using the well known concept of buildpacks there is no limitation for programming languages.

There are already a lot of buildpacks available: Java, Ruby, PHP, Python, Node.js, Go and many more.

If you have special demands on your application environment you can write your own buildpack.
