Ask HN: Deploying a web app to a VPS in 2017

3 points by ollieco 9y ago

I am a looking to deploy a small web application to a VPS that I bought. I was hoping to learn a bit about devops in the process (instead of relying on a PaaS like Heroku) but the ecosystem seems overwhelming. There seems to be a large number of moving parts - Docker, Kubernetes etc. What are some of the simpler options to deploy web apps to a VPS?

It really depends on what the webapp is developed in.

  It is written in Go (Golang).

    stick the executible on the server with nginx in front of it for the easiest setup.

I think you should use dokku[1], which is the simplest if you want to deploy on a VPS. Kubernetes, ECS are multi-node solutions and may not be ideal for you now. [1]: https://github.com/dokku/dokku https://github.com/dokku/dokku
