When building a new application, there is a lot to be said for building it completely serverless: You can focus on the code instead of tinkering with deployments and configuration. Because you don't need to worry about deployment at this point, you can actually ship a better long-term architecture with multiple services and clear APIs between them. And best of all - until you actually get users for your application, you barely pay anything.

Nile provides Serverless Postgres database with tenant-awareness, so you can provision Postgres in a click and start building your B2B application. Now it is time to choose serverless compute. If you are using Python, and there's a good chance that you are, then Modal is going to be a great fit for you.

Modal is a serverless compute platform that lets developers deploy Python apps (anything from web services, data processing, Slack bots…) to the cloud by adding few annotations to perfectly normal Python code. To make things even sweeter - they have a nice collection of GPUs that can be used to run LLMs and make these applications smart.
