Even better
Get rid of those bloated OSes and run apps directly on HW/vHW
- claytongulick 3y agoThat's what I do. I understand that there are some good use cases for containers, but I still haven't encountered a need for them. I run everything from a /home/app folder, with the app user and restricted permissions. I avoid projects that have container-only deployment (supabase, for example). Whenever I peek behind the curtain, I end up horrified at the complexity. Honestly, I just can't imagine why someone would want to run postgres, for example, in a container. Seems like a nightmare for maintenance and production support.
- t0astbread 3y agoI think they meant "run apps directly on hardware / virtual hardware". As in building the app with a unikernel, bypassing the need for a (large) operating system.
