    I’ve been using the Go version of Encore for the past year. Overall it’s been really pleasant, a few rough edges that their team helped resolve, but it saved so much time on Ops that it was well worth it.

    Where is the distributed part in all this? Looks like a typical runtime to me?

    This looks like a cross between Heroku and NATS. Any users care to comment?

    I've seen Encore pop up here before and been impressed with some blog posts.

    But the product itself seems vague. I think it's abstractions to simplify cloud primitives.

    I like the brand, tone and presentation.

    What does Encore do, exactly? From the comments here and the blog post it's not super clear to me.

    Recently have been enjoying developing with Azurite, this looks similar. Storage, queue, function, etc.

    It's worth mentioning that its built by ex-Spotify devs.

    Is it somewhat OTP part of Erlang/OTP?
