Crawlee Cloud Self-hosted platform for running Crawlee and Apify actor

Hey HN, I built Crawlee Cloud, an open-source, self-hosted platform that lets you run Crawlee and Apify Actors on your own infrastructure. The problem: The Apify ecosystem (Crawlee, SDK, Actors) is fantastic for web scraping, but it's tied to their cloud. If you want to keep your data on-prem, run on your own servers, or save on costs at scale, you're stuck. The solution: Crawlee Cloud implements Apify's REST API so your existing Actors work without code changes. Just point APIFY_API_BASE_URL to your own server. What's included: SDK compatible: Datasets, Key-Value Stores, Request Queues all work Docker-based: Each Actor runs in an isolated container Dashboard: Monitor runs, explore datasets, manage Actors CLI: Push, run, and manage Actors from your terminal Stack: Node.js, Fastify, PostgreSQL, Redis, S3/MinIO, Next.js GitHub: https://github.com/crawlee-cloud/crawlee-cloud Happy to answer questions!
