MapleDeploy vs Railway
Canadian infrastructure with dedicated resources and flat pricing. Same developer experience, different jurisdiction.
Railway is a solid developer platform. Fast deploys, easy Postgres provisioning, a clean workflow. But Railway is a US company running on US infrastructure, with per-resource pricing that can be hard to predict. MapleDeploy gives you the same git push workflow on dedicated Canadian infrastructure, with a flat monthly price.
Key differences
Canadian data sovereignty
Railway runs on US infrastructure. Your data is subject to US law, including the CLOUD Act. MapleDeploy runs exclusively on Canadian infrastructure in Toronto. Your application data never leaves Canada.
Dedicated resources
Railway runs your app in containers with resource limits on shared infrastructure. MapleDeploy gives you a dedicated VM with guaranteed RAM, CPU, and storage. No noisy neighbors, no resource contention.
Flat pricing
Railway charges per resource: CPU, RAM, and egress are all metered. A traffic spike can surprise your bill. MapleDeploy charges a flat $45-695 CAD/month. No egress fees, no per-project charges.
