Reviewer scorecard
“Unlimited log ingestion changes how you think about logging. No more deciding what to keep. Query everything.”
“For apps that need full server control — WebSocket servers, background workers, AI inference — Fly.io gives you the flexibility that serverless platforms don't.”
“The pricing model is radically simpler than Datadog. Ingest everything, pay for queries and retention.”
“The DX has improved massively but it's still more complex than Vercel. You need to understand Docker and infrastructure. Not for beginners.”
“Query-on-read architecture is the future of log management. Axiom's approach makes unlimited logging practical.”
“Fly.io is the answer for workloads that don't fit the serverless model. As AI inference goes local-first, having servers in 30+ regions matters.”
