Fly

Fly.io transforms Docker containers into micro-VMs running on bare metal in 30+ regions globally.

Fly.io bypasses traditional cloud complexity by deploying application code directly to the edge. The platform converts OCI images into Firecracker micro-VMs, placing compute physically close to users to minimize latency. Developers manage global fleets via the flyctl CLI, leveraging Anycast IPs for routing and private WireGuard networks for secure inter-service communication. Whether scaling a Phoenix app in Tokyo or a Postgres cluster in Amsterdam, Fly handles the hardware orchestration so teams can focus on shipping features.
