Vercel's pricing model has created significant backlash among developers, as seen with Cara's $95,000 bill due to a sudden surge of users, pushing many to seek alternatives.
Alternatives like Heroku previously offered a free tier, but after its discontinuation, many developers have turned to Coolify, an open-source, self-hosting solution that mitigates unexpected costs.
Coolify allows developers to retain complete control over their infrastructure while utilizing cloud-like services, addressing concerns of independence and cost control amid fluctuating usage.
The growing adoption of Infrastructure as Code (IaC) emphasizes the need for automated management of infrastructure, as manual management becomes impractical with scaling projects.
