Why Railway Ditched Google Cloud to Build Its Own Data Centers
Railway’s early days on Google Cloud were rough—issues piled up, threatening its very survival. So, last year, they launched “Railway Metal,” starting with a data center in California. Now, they’re building three more regions to ensure stability and control. It’s like upgrading from renting to owning: more upfront work but total freedom. This move puts Railway in charge of its future, ensuring no third-party platform can derail them again.
