Darmi Cloud vs Railway — FAQ
What's the main difference between Darmi Cloud and Railway?
Both deploy full-stack apps from GitHub with any framework. The key differences are that Darmi Cloud is fully self-hostable and uses flat monthly pricing, while Railway is managed-only with usage-based pricing.
Does Railway offer managed databases that Darmi Cloud doesn't yet?
Yes — Railway offers one-click managed databases today. Managed databases are on the Darmi Cloud roadmap; for now you connect your own database via environment variables.
Is Darmi Cloud cheaper than Railway?
