Right... there are a lot of contradictions in their comment. You want to focus on your product, by managing your own server(s)? You don't want to over engineer early on but you're running a load balancer and n-servers? Why not a single server? Or, offload the management entirely to someone else and focus on your product.
- sickcodebruh 3y agoIt’s not contradictory if read with an understanding that one can be experienced and comfortable with the amount of server management required for a product at its current and likely future states. This makes the management piece less demanding than evaluating then learning an unfamiliar paradigm and the question marks that go along with that.
- sureglymop 3y agoMaybe they mean reverse proxy? Often these come in the same product (see HAProxy). This can be used like Traefik to basically just proxy http requests to the right containers/applications based on host header or sni but it also has real load balancing capabilities too.
