There are four projects:</p>\n<p>What is Unison Cloud?</p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://unison.cloud\">Unison Cloud</a> turns any pool of nodes into a distributed computer, programmable with the Unison language. <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0q6jY58xsKA\">See a series of demos</a>. Some features:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Service deploys in seconds. Services are lightweight, &lt; 200kb. No more building and shipping around multi-GB containers.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Fast, typed, inter-service communication using <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=347IbLJ6cfM\">adaptive service graph compression</a>.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Distributed batch jobs, using a high-level fork/join style distributed computing model.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Transactional storage (backed by DynamoDB) and object storage (backed by S3).</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Secrets management, long-running background jobs, and more.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://share.unison-lang.org/@unison/cloud\">Unison Cloud client</a> defines the programming model for a Unison Cloud cluster. It includes both a local interpreter (for testing and local development) and the real interpeter that talks to a distributed Unison cluster. This has been open source for a long time.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://share.unison-lang.org/@unison/nimbus\">Nimbus</a> is the worker node for a Unison Cloud cluster. It is written in Unison. The system supports any number of workers, and can be scaled dynamically up or down. This is newly open sourced.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://github.com/unisonweb/cloud-api\">Unison Cloud API Server</a> is a Haskell service that the Unison Cloud client talks to when interacting with a remote Unison Cloud cluster. It also acts as a control plane for tracking cluster membership, handling authentication, and so on. This is newly open sourced.</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>The <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https://github.com/unisonweb/unison-cloud-ui\">Unison Cloud UI</a> is the code behind <code>app.unison.cloud</code> (for viewing deployed services, logs, and so on). This is newly open sourced.</p>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<p>We think this tech will be more useful to the world as an open source technology and hope that people build great things with it.</p>\n<p>If you're interested in professional support for a Unison Cloud cluster, get in touch at <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"mailto:hello@unison.cloud\">hello@unison.cloud</a>.</p>\n",
