Remember all those horror stories about ridiculous bills from public cloud providers? I also got $4.5k bill once for simple mistake on AWS. So I decided to build Vercel for your own servers - DollarDeploy, which manages servers and deploys NextJS apps (without docker) and docker compose configs to your server. We don't have self hosted or open source but cloud version starts from $1/mo

Now is a good time to sell licenses around the world. Edit: just noticed you are in Finland. You might be exactly what I’ve been looking for lately

I m curious, how do you deploy Next.js apps w/o docker? Self hosted nodejs? Also how much do you lag behind vercel releases?

  What may be mysterious here? You can have multiple versions of Node installed if needed, and every app brings in the entire dependency tree, isolated from everything else. If you trust your apps enough, you don't even need chroot.

    I have much more peace of mind when it's not in chroot but even better inside systemd unit and all that ReadonlyPath and capabilities applied. In the ideal case network access beyond localhost and may be db is denied for greater safety

  Hi, I build NextJs in standalone mode per docs and it works pretty well, we keep it running using pm2 but I want to migrate to systems service. I would say any NextJs should work but we run DollarDeploy ourselves using NextJs 14
