Appwrite Cloud is Generally Available_

Appwrite Cloud was designed to make it easier to build with Appwrite because we know self-hosting is not for everyone.

Today, Appwrite Cloud is powering over 300,000 projects, and we are both proud and excited to announce its transition to general availability.

Building Appwrite
Cloud for you

When we started working on our plans for Appwrite Cloud, we knew we had a hard task ahead of us, as we didn’t want to just be a wrapper on top of AWS or Cloudflare. With no vendors to lean on, we wanted to customize every piece in the platform to create the most complete developer experience we can imagine.

We wanted to create a developer experience that rethinks how an idea goes to production and scale, without worries, without limits.

Another benefit of this approach is the ability to control the cost of building with Appwrite as we reduce vendor dependency. Making Appwrite’s pricing more accessible as part of our mission.

Together with the open-source community, Appwrite Cloud has reached General Availability (GA). We're excited to share Appwrite Cloud's journey towards GA with you.

To become Generally Available, we set a few milestones that we had to achieve across different factors. Some are easier to measure than others, but never less important.

Milestones for Success

The journey so far

The milestone we achieved today officially started 26 months ago when we launched Appwrite private beta and enrolled users onto the platform bit by bit. Since then, we have reached many achievements before taking Cloud to the next level.

To become Generally Available, we set milestones across our journey to reach over time.

Developer Experience

The Open Source
community as a guide

We have said it a million times, and we will say it again: Developer experience is at the top of the Appwrite list.

Appwrite has had the help of thousands of developers from the open-source community to ensure that the developer experience is at the top of our minds as we continuously collect feedback from the community.

Appwrite is grateful for every contribution, and we're committed to remaining open-source. The Appwrite self-hosted instance will offer the same experience as Appwrite Cloud, and our dedication to the Free plan remains unchanged. We're ensuring Appwrite stays accessible for everyone to build with.

Infrastructure & Scalability

Scale without worries

Appwrite Cloud was built to scale, quietly and reliably. Over the past months, we’ve seen teams of all sizes grow from their first few users to hundreds of thousands without touching their infrastructure or running into billing surprises. The platform has matured to a point where scaling isn’t a concern - it just happens.

A special thanks to Appwrite for shouldering the heavy lifting behind StoreAlert, providing robust features and seamless functionality that allow us to focus on what matters most.

With its robust feature set and open-source nature, Appwrite is the perfect choice for developers who want to build secure and scalable applications without breaking the bank.

We really loved working with Appwrite for launching our bootstrapped "Open Mind" App. It was saving us a lot of money in comparison to Firebase since the amount of users grew quite fast and we needed a quick switch.

Security & Compliance

Secure by default

Appwrite has been and continues to be security-driven. From the very beginning, we ensured security measures, like encryption and abuse protection, were built into Appwrite Cloud, and were easy to manage from the Console. Over the past year, we have taken security and compliance measures up a notch by adhering to GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and SOC 2 Type 2 compliance regulations.

HIPAA

SOC 2

More recently, we have added three new features to ensure even more security and compliance regulations are in place: Roles for based access management, MFA for the Appwrite Console, and Database Backups.

Network & Latency

Global distribution

One of the exciting releases this year was the announcement of the Appwrite Network. A network of cloud regions and edge locations (edges) to improve Appwrite Cloud availability, performance, and compliance with local regulations. We started with one region, Frankfurt, and we now have two more up and running, and a lot more to come. Appwrite is committed to expanding the number of regions to ensure a great experience, regardless of location.

We aim to deliver a great experience by reducing latency and ensuring you can build on top of Appwrite Cloud no matter your location.

Dedicated Support

A team of experts

The open-source community supporting Appwrite has been an undeniable advantage in Appwrite’s success. You have been the first line of support when Appwrite first started.

Today, Appwrite has scaled out that support with dedicated programs, processes, resources, partners, and support engineers. No matter what you are building, from students to enterprises, Appwrite helps you get to production fast.

Appwrite doesn’t just provide you with an all-in-one development platform. We are your dedicated partner in your development journey.

What's next

As Appwrite Cloud continues to age, it also continues to improve over time. With new products, features, more support, more regions, and anything else needed to get your projects to production faster.

We look forward to continuing to make Appwrite the most complete development platform available, enabling you to build like a team of hundreds.
