What is Northflank? I am surprised at the amount of new business out there
paxy•33m ago
You are on a YC startup forum and are surprised tech startups exist?
jmull•29m ago
"amount" it says. No matter the context, there could be more than you expect.

I ran some stats on producthunt a few months ago, there are 22 times more daily SaaS launches now than in 2020, the AI impact on the industry is hard to fathom. The blog I wrote (AI-assisted) if you're curious: https://www.mahl.me/blog/product-hunt-is-swamped-now/

Northflank isn't that new, it was founded in 2019. Its a cloud platform, you can get more details by googling.

New businesses, not new business.

Unfortunately for infra startups, I think we're going to see a convergence back to hyperscalers as a result of incidents like this and railway.

There's no amount of "nicer to use" that can replace security, at least certainly when selling to enterprises

bix6•15m ago
Are hyperscalers actually more secure though? I have only heard anecdotal thinking eg nobody ever got fired for choosing IBM.

It’s the same thing: let’s say Microsoft or AWS got hacked. Then you’re definitely not the only one who got hacked.

So, you can always say: Look, it’s not us (especially not my org!). It f’ing Microsoft/AWS. Everyone got hacked.

You and your career are gonna be fine.

When I was at Microsoft we took security cripplingly seriously to the point we could not deliver features and our competitors could because the security process was convoluted and had multiple reviews and approval steps.

i'm surprised at the growth of all these neoclouds given the current security risk climate...

How these Paas (Railway before) are being breached? Poor choices or something else? Scary Nonetheless. I thought AI advancement will make the self hosting painful. If PaaS are no good, then what can be done?
trouve_search•15m ago
Why would ai advancement make self hosting painful? Apart from increased cost of hardware (which you implicitly would pay for in PaaS as well anyways).

If anything, AI makes running linux boxes much easier than 4 years ago; it's now faster and the learning cliff is gone to get the correct CLI commands and digging into system logs.

monster_truck•8m ago
if you're still doing that manually in 2026 you probably should not be self hosting anything of consequence or commercial liability
vorpalhex•14m ago
When you build something small, you can easily see all the doors and properly guard them.

As you build something bigger and bigger, quickly, with several people building, guarding all the doors becomes exceptionally difficult without a kind of aggressive discipline which is contrary to the "go fast" culture.

Cybersecurity in practice until now, for most companies, has been an insurance problem, not a quality problem.

Such companies are quickly discovering that insurance is a post-hoc partial correction and not a proper solution.

This situation will not improve anytime soon for most companies.

The solution does not require any new magical tools.

gavxn•14m ago
Does anyone know to what degree Sentry use Northflank?
loloquwowndueo•6m ago
Whatcha mean. If they do, it would likely be in Sentry’s list of subprocessors. Check there.
