Why the models rank AWS Fargate — on best container hosting platform for backends

Why the models rank Fly.io — on best container hosting platform for backends
“Purpose-built for running containers (Firecracker microVMs) close to users with a simple fly deploy from a Dockerfile; excellent for stateful/global workloads with anycast, built-in Postgres/volumes, and cheap always-on machines that scale to zero; strong DX for the small-team practitioner who wants real container control without Kubernetes.”
