>"Jenkins is not necessary, you can still deploy stuff with a local bash script and you need containerization whether you are on Microservices or Monolyth architecture" This is what I do. Single bash script when ran on bare OS can install and configure all dependencies, create database from backup, build and start said monolith. All steps are optional and depend on command line parameters. Since I deploy on dedicated servers I have no real need for containers. So my maintenance tasks are - ssh to dedicated server and run that script when needed. Every once in a while run the same thing on fresh local VM to make sure everything installs, configures, builds and works from the scratch.
