What's the current situation?

I have only used Coronium IO when it first came on the scene. Not having kept up with the updates, but looking recently that there is Corona Cloud news, I was somewhat surprised to see that http://coronium.io/ redirects to http://docs.coronium.io/en/latest/ but that “New installations are currently unavailable.”

What’s going on and is there a time we can expect to be able to use Coronium/Corona Cloud?

Hi,

Coronium was a (free) personal project I maintained before coming on board with Corona. Coronium is going to be receiving less attention overall and will be moving to an open source contribution model. I no longer have the luxury of being broke and working on whatever I want. :slight_smile:

As a matter of policy, I cant speculate on timeframes, though if it could be “yesterday” it would be. Corona Cloud is taking time mostly due to building the proper architecture for scalable and enterprise level deployments.

Thank you for your patience.

Hi,

Any update on potential timeframes for Corona Cloud release? Still 6 months left before Parse shuts down, but I’d really like to start planning for the migration (which is hefty) to, hopefully, Corona Cloud. Do you think it will be released in Q3?

thx!

If I understand correctly, a self-hosted version is coming fairly soon. @develephant posted this a few days ago:

This is the last update I have. I recommend subscribing to that thread as well as subscribing to the twitter account for updates

Thx, Rob. I had seen that announcement, but thought it was another iteration of the existing coronium env, rather than the corona cloud solution that has been discussed. I have a current coronium env running using digitalocean, so perhaps I can easily migrate my parse requirements to this new coronium LS solution (hopefully it will have user mgmt with fb login etc included :).

thx!

Hi,

I have to caution that LS takes the development “layer” a step back from Coronium Classic. While FB logins are absolutely possible, these are not core components. The project has been very carefully organized as open source for contributions, production ready deployments, and tight integration with Corona SDK. Adding and sharing modules to the system is a piece of cake, and I believe that other devs will actually find it fun to create and share modules, including an FB login, which is actually just data storage, but I’ll get to that a little later.

More soon.

Cheers.

  

thx for the update Chris… I’m looking for the right moment to either go left or right re my current Parse backend, before Jan 2017 :). Corona Cloud seems to be the logical (and current favorite, based on what we’ve learned so far) choice, but perhaps building on top of LS should be the only way, given timeframes…

Looking forward to hearing more in the coming period :slight_smile:

thx!
