But, if I go with Google or Amazon, just curious about how I would create an app with my Mac, as they don't provide a macOS environment. Can I cross-compile for Windows or Linux on my Mac? Or, should I run a Windows virtual machine and build my app in that environment? (Not my favorite choice, as I would end up working in Windows most of the time.) I'd use docker and run a docker container. Stack has nice support for building them. D On Sun, Jul 16, 2017 at 11:07 PM, Lyndon Maydwell <maydwell@gmail.com> wrote:
I heard about https://www.clever-cloud.com/ providing Haskell app support.
Didn't get to try it out though.

Thanks. I guess I don't know much about cloud services. Will they run a lot of threads in parallel? Or do they run my program on only one CPU and/or use only the number of cores in one processor? That's the point of using them, to run more threads in parallel than I have cores on my MacBook.
Depending on your budget, on AWS you can rent a machine from the miniscule t2.nano all the way up to the 128-core x1.32xlarge, with various tradeoffs on memory vs CPU vs storage vs ... in between. All can run Haskell programs. There's also various options in Haskell for distributing your computation across multiple machines, if that sounds useful.
A good place to start is the pricing page which gives you a good overview of the options.
https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/on-demand/
Other cloud providers are available, of course.
Cheers,
