- We have automated backups but they're for our own internal disaster recovery. User backups are something we want to do but haven't put on our roadmap yet
- A key thing with Railway is "It's just code". So, a worker is just another service. We don't have special casing for specific types of code. We just run the code! So, yes we do support them
- We have a lot of stuff built in, but we also support deploying say, a containerized DataDog agent, or a Dockerized sidecar, or application level Sentry integrations
We have a very particular vision of how this stuff should be done, so it's going to take some time. My promise is to always be super honest about the platform, so it would be more of an "Customer Discovery" vs a Sales call
If that all sounds well and good, you can email me at jake@railway.app! Offer goes for anybody interested but again, I'm not here to push the platform just to gain clarity on what we're building :)
I was trying out your free tier and was looking for any way to run shell commands (like heroku run). There's "railway connect" to connect directly to a database but really what is needed (i.e. table stakes) is to be able to do something like "railway run ./manage.py shell" remotely (NOT local).
I can tell you a couple things off the bat:
