Nice work on Prisma 🙂. I am a bit confused by the rebranding, since there are now two sites. Is it correct that with Prisma you need to take care of hosting the database yourself? I can't find any pricing info on the Prisma site

Prisma is available as a Docker image 🙂 If you are familiar with Docker it should be fairly simple for you to set up a cluster. There's also a tutorial walking you through deploying to Digital Ocean in 20 minutes here: https://www.prismagraphql.com/docs/tutorials/

What will be happening to the graph.cool shared clusters?

Aha thanks! I looked at the docs and only saw deployment with Now so I stopped looking
so maybe a tip: for Docker-newbies the term "cluster" may not ring a bell 😉
j
so basically, prisma creates the docker image for you and host the database in you VPS. But... what's the price? Is it free?

cluster, droplet... 🤔

@lastmjs Graphcool Framework clusters will continue to operate as of now 🙂 Prisma will eventually be used as the GraphQL engine in the Graphcool Framework.

So Graphcool will be the hosting and Prisma the framework for creating the backend to be hosted?
I'm wondering if Graphcool hosting is here to stay
j
@nilan would you mind clarifying what you mean with "for now"? Do you plan on deprecating them?
r
I too would like to know that
n
just updated my post 🙂 we're not deprecating the Framework.
r
Does that mean that graphcool will still provide hosting options in the future?
l
Is Graphcool planning to provide hosting for the long term? It would be helpful to clearly know as I strive to create long term strategies for my company and projects
Why does Prisma not have tutorials for deploying with Graphcool?
