Well this is obviously a marketing post but I'm in doubt with something.

With "DevOps" (whis is actually a way to work - practices - instead on a job position or a specific thing to do) I can have my App on G Cloud and AWS (at the same time with balancing if I want) and being integrated into production each time a merge request to Master is accepted. Also there's auto-deploy to test environment when some developer push changes into develop branch.

How Amezmo deals with that?
Is there some real CI/CD or it's simply a git-clone -> expose on a public URL that you need to trigger manually?
How much control do you have over your own App?

Hi, your question is completely fine.
The simplest answer is that What if you don't have enough time & skill to manage DevOps yourself. Amezmo is the abstraction of a complete enterprise infrastructure with features like Auto-deployment, git integration (GitHub, GitLab, BitBucket), Hooks to run the bash scripts on deployment and build. It also provides you the SSL certificate and managed database.

So as of my understanding, a person can launch a properly scalable production infrastructure in a few seconds by just connecting git.

Nice, and have you the option to use Apache or nginx depending on what you want?
Also I would like to know if can you set a DB different from Mysql? (maria DB, Postgre...)

Yes, you have the option to use Nginx (any version), PHP (any version), Apache (any version) also some other tools I don't know of.

I'm afraid that they're just providing the MySQL hosting. (Not confirm)

I took a look at the docs, it fits for automation of some little and medium sites which is good, by the way I'll keep with my workaroud, unerstanding the basics and setting up a CI script is not that difficult at the end and adding (and executing) it on gitlab or other git servers is free :)

What's the diff between amezmo and runcloud? ploi.io?

Hi Menj. Ryan from Amezmo here. The biggest differences between Amezmo and [ploi, runcloud] is that Amezmo brings you the server as well as the deployment/infrastructure automation. On the other two platforms, you will be required to "bring your cloud".

But what is this a good or bad thing? Personally i need servers all around the world and prefer datacenters which i have researched.
