What Hacker News says?
I was having a hard time finding the statement that SpatialOS can't run apart from Google Cloud, but they do not allow self-hosting, meaning you are tied to wherever they put their servers which is Google according to the parent's source.

on “Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2018)”What's specifically not possible with current technology? For example the "infinitely large simulation world" is an off-the-shelf system (or was the last time I looked https://hadean.com/ ) . Sure, it might not work in production but that certainly is not a lie.
