In their own words
Cloud 66
Cloud 66 deploys and manages applications on cloud infrastructure customers provide, including major providers, hybrid environments, and their own servers. It supports Rails or Sinatra apps, Docker containers on Kubernetes, and static sites built with Jekyll, Hugo, or Gatsby. Deployment options include zero-downtime, blue/green, and canary deployments, plus previews for branches, tags, and pull requests. Hosted Docker build servers and autoscaling based on CPU, memory, queue backlog, and Nginx response time are available. Managed databases can include off-site backups, replication, and monitoring; the platform also provides server monitoring, alerts, logs, and metrics. Listed cloud providers include AWS, DigitalOcean, Google Compute Engine, Hetzner Cloud, Latitude.sh, Linode, OVHcloud, Microsoft Azure, and Vultr. Cloud 66 says it does not store customer code or data on its servers. Customers pay their cloud provider directly for server costs. The Free plan is free for up to one server, one static site, and five deployments per 24 hours. Developer is $23 a month and supports up to two servers and two static sites.
Juju
Juju is Canonical’s open source orchestration engine for deploying, connecting and managing application lifecycles with charms. A charm packages reusable business logic to automate parts of an application’s life. Juju treats application integrations as part of lifecycle management and can manage software across public clouds, Kubernetes, virtual machines and bare metal. It can apply networking and configuration changes between applications even when they run on different clouds. Charmhub is a curated marketplace with charms for tools such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Kafka, Kubeflow, Apache Spark, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Vault, Traefik and Landscape. For enterprise use, JAAS provides a central control plane that can manage hundreds of Juju controllers. It adds fine-grained access controls, auditing and support for external identity providers through OIDC and single sign-on in the CLI and web dashboard. JAAS also has a graphical administration and monitoring dashboard. Juju is free and open source; listed platforms include Linux, macOS, Windows, API and self-hosted environments.
