A lot of people have asked about more details. I am going to reply here and hope it gets enough visibility. Right now, it's a simple web app + db + redis queue. We'll start with just one prod server (and a test/staging server perhaps?) with some kind of a failover setup. My goal is to keep operational complexity to a minimum. I plan to avoid k8s and just use docker compose/docker swarm/dokku. I have seen enough places burned by going with the big 3 - either through billing, support, or the sheer complexity of managing everything. You might start of with good intentions but you tack on a service because it's easily available and the next thing you know your costs have creeped up and moving things has become a non trivial project that you don't have time for. I am just looking for a box I can run my setup on with fair pricing, good support, and enough reputation where I have faith they are not going to fold in 6 months. And if things go south, I want to be able to migrate easily. |
