Cloud Migration, Server Costs, and CDN Challenges - RUBY 650

you deploy the cache it gets updated so um yeah it's it it's great well to my knowledge that like that's a big improvement um hasn't had any issues that i'm that i'm aware of you know uh i mean cloudfront's pretty straightforward at some level. It works really well. Obviously, you don't have to be an AWS for that, but I guess it helps if you're all in there.

It'd be interesting to know, though, if you're... I don't know. The thing is, this is another thing, isn't it? Where do people deploy their Rails apps? What's the go-to thing?

And well, if I do that, then what if my, you know, my app is on the Hetzner and, But do I now have to build, do I run that in a Docker container? For me, that isn't covered, whereas actually that's the most important thing. I don't really care about my web servers. It's my database that I care about.

And Heroku was good, but then they're really tight-fisted with their resources, which I don't like. So I don't know. That's another whole conversation, I guess, maybe for another time.

uh the definitive kind of i think kamala's going i really like it it's going in the right direction but it doesn't quite get me what i want whereas like digital ocean uh is it the app one the docker-based one that they have is really good idea but in practice hasn't in my opinion hasn't been that it's not great a bit slow but conceptually it's great because you can get managed databases there i can just kind of deploy my thing via docker so that that

But yeah, I was just driven by, you know, if you go to AWS and you kind of go, yeah, here's my startup, you can get like two years of all these credits, great. I mean, it's a complete bait and switch thing from them, but actually pretty good. So you can kind of, you know, I think I got like a thousand bucks, kind of goes a long way, you know, it's great. But yeah, ultimately would I do that?

Sure. Well, I'm going to big up Friendly RB, which takes place in September 18th, 19th, I think, in Bucharest, Romania. I'm speaking there, but there's a whole bunch of much better speakers than me, which you should go and check out. I believe there's still some tickets left. I have a discount, but you have to, I can't, I don't think I can announce it. You can find me.
