Render had some pretty bad outages (10+ hours) and couple shorter ones just couple months ago, so it's not perfect either. But anyways I have also found it better than Heroku for my projects, it's even easier to setup than Heroku and pricing is slightly better too (especially the free static sites).

(Render founder) We've learned a lot from these outages, most of which stemmed from DDoS attacks. We've since built DDoS protection into the fabric of Render: https://render.com/blog/free-ddos-protection.

Specifically related to this AWS outage, Render can already transparently shift your app between AZs, and we're also working on moving services across underlying cloud providers (GCP/AWS and eventually bare metal).

Would be great if your service supported JVM applications in the near future. Kotlin on the backend is a thing.

Agreed and noted.

Awesome! Thanks.
