... listed Cloud World Model on the agent storefront at https://tryponcho.com/m/www.clou... - and wanted to share it here first. What it is: A realistic cloud simulation API that lets AI agents (and humans) run AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, and DigitalOcean architectures without provisioning real infrastructure. Full multi-cloud traffic routing, autoscaling, failure injection, cost modeling, and RL training environments - all in one API. Why it matters for agents: Most AI agents that deal with infrastructure decisions need a safe place ...

... finished #5 Product of the Day. Here's what three days of 60+ comments actually taught us. We launched Cloud World Model on Product Hunt last week. The pitch: simulate AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, and DigitalOcean infrastructure without provisioning real resources. You describe an architecture compute, databases, load balancers, serverless functions and the simulator models latency curves, CPU saturation, autoscaling behavior, failure propagation, and cost. No cloud bill. We expected interest from learners. The comments told a different story. What ...

Could you recommend the best low-cost alternatives for infrastructure and launching? Databases Payments/money management (I m currently considering Stripe) Analytics Hosting and domains? If there are other essential tools I m missing, feel free to add them. I m especially open to dev advice since my experience here ... ... just cheap.

Learn about the topics a little, some basics of a software development workflow, how GitHub manages software development, what does DigitalOcean or Amazon Web Services provide, etc. It is OK if we do not get a fully working, bug-free software launched in one go. If we can learn how to use these new tools, so many more people can build ...
