Nhost v2 - The beginning of something big
Blog post from Nhost
Nhost has launched its version 2 into public beta, marking a significant upgrade in its mission to provide a robust backend platform akin to what Netlify and Vercel offer for the frontend. This new version comes after a comprehensive overhaul of both services and infrastructure to enhance performance and developer productivity, ultimately supporting scalable app development. Key updates include a new free tier for testing and small projects, revamped design elements across its platform, and a shift from DigitalOcean to AWS for improved scaling capabilities. Additionally, Nhost v2 introduces new features like a unified permission system with Hasura Auth and Storage, enhanced SDKs, a simplified domain structure, and a rebuilt CLI for improved local development workflows. With a focus on serverless functions now hosted on AWS Lambda and a strategic move to AWS infrastructure, Nhost aims to offer high availability and scalability to cater to diverse customer needs, from small developers to large enterprises. Existing users are encouraged to migrate from v1 to v2 to benefit from these enhancements, with support available through GitHub discussions and Discord channels.
