Why Render
Blog post from Render
Render is a modern Platform as a Service (PaaS) that aims to simplify the development and deployment of software by providing a robust, flexible, and cost-effective cloud platform, focusing on enhancing the developer experience. Unlike traditional approaches that require significant investment in DevOps, Render offers a solution that reduces the complexity faced by developers when dealing with infrastructure, allowing them to concentrate on building and shipping applications quickly. The platform supports a variety of services, including static sites, full-stack apps, managed PostgreSQL databases, and Docker containers, alongside industry-first features like private networking and true resource-based autoscaling. Founded in 2017 and evolving from a passion project, Render has attracted a diverse team of talented individuals from leading tech companies and is committed to redefining the boundaries between PaaS and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) by delivering more value to developers and businesses.
