About DevStackCompare

An independent comparison site for developer infrastructure — VPS providers, app platforms, static hosting, and managed databases. Built by one person. Fully transparent about how it works.

Who built this

DevStackCompare is built and maintained by John Ogoina, an independent digital builder based in Lagos, Nigeria, operating under the GitHub organization aiopentec. It's part of a small portfolio of zero-cost, automated comparison sites, alongside Open Source Alternative Finder, Email Tool Compare, and CareerToolFinder.

How this site works

1. Tool data lives in a structured file. Every provider's pricing, pros, cons, and positioning is stored in a single data file.
2. A Python build script generates every page — comparisons, category pages, and alternatives hubs — from that data.
3. GitHub Actions rebuilds the site automatically on every update and on a weekly schedule, then deploys to GitHub Pages.

What this site does not do

• No one has personally run production workloads on every provider listed here. Pros, cons, and pricing are based on publicly available information at the time of writing.
• Pricing for infrastructure providers changes often. Always check the provider's own pricing page before committing.
