    I presume the domain name is a violation of the Docker trademark, seeing as it could potentially be confused for an official product (as it uses the Docker name)

    There is no way I'd trust that with my containers. Most of the website is fake (as in just text rather than links).

    The sub-domains you are assigning doesn't work for me. Lookup fails.

    Eg: https://zeyxnt8hs40zr2.docker-run.com/ https://qazf5k4ow7gpz2vq.docker-run.com/

    Didn't work for me either. First time I tried nothing happened - just hung, the second time it started to build an nginx container but failed with a permission denied error. Also the only link that works is the link to Github.

    It's a bit like https://zeit.co/now without the CLI that builds and pushes the images.

    Can you talk to the problem Docker-Run is trying to solve? It's already relatively easy to deploy docker containers today (AWS/Azure/GCP/DigitalOcean/etc) and even have them pipe to the browser like this.

    Without an ecosystem of services to integrate (Identity/Storage/DB/Queue/DNS/LB/Network/etc), containers aren't awfully useful.

    What is the differentiator?

    EDIT: grammar

    Maybe it's just the avalanche of HN traffic but I can't get to your pricing tab (or the others)

    I dont understand what provlem this service would solve?

    Also, nginx:latest doesnt work with error WebSocket connection to 'wss://api.docker-run.com/' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 502

    Doesn't seem very sustainable, what's the business model?
  • by captn3m0 on 1/17/19, 8:13 PM

    Next thing you'd want is docker-compose support for multiple containers running together

    Is "Docker Dun (beta)" the intended page title?

    Nice, it worked for me.
