Comparison
Muerte Cloud vs Netlify
Netlify is excellent at static frontends and build previews. Muerte Cloud matches the static deploy workflow and adds the backend half: containers that stay running, managed databases, disks and scheduled jobs.
Muerte Cloud and Netlify: side by side
| Capability | Muerte Cloud | Netlify |
|---|---|---|
| Static hosting | Deploy from Git, automatic TLS, billed like other services from your wallet | Free tier with bandwidth caps |
| Server-side runtime | Long-running containers | Functions with execution limits |
| Databases | Managed Postgres, Redis and MongoDB | Third-party integrations |
| PR previews | Planned, in development — not available yet | Deploy previews |
| Scheduled jobs | Managed cron service type, editable and run on demand | Scheduled functions |
When to pick Muerte Cloud
- Your site needs an API, background jobs or a database, not only a CDN.
- You want one bill and one dashboard for frontend and backend.
When Netlify fits better
- You only publish a static marketing site and use Netlify's free tier, forms and identity add-ons.
- You need PR preview environments today.
Frequently asked questions
- Is static hosting free?
- No — there's no free tier. Static sites deploy from Git with automatic TLS but are billed from your prepaid wallet like any other service, based on the resources they use.
