Questions
How is CloudGrid different from Render?
Mostly by what you never do: no service configuration, no environment plumbing, no dashboard-first workflow. You ask, it runs.
Does it really run background work?
Yes. Agents and jobs run continuously or on a schedule, with memory between runs.
Can I still get at the knobs?
The essentials are there when you want them: secrets, env, domains, visibility, data. From your grid, not a console maze.
