For all the people who are saying you don’t need X and Y - what is the simplest way to deploy a web app using TLS on a VPS/VM?
Let’s say I’ve got a golang binary locally on my machine, or as an output of github actions.
With Google Cloud Run/Fargate/DigitalOcean I can click about 5 buttons, push a docker image and I’m done, with auto updates, roll backs, logging access from my phone, all straight out of the box, for about $30/mo.
My understanding with Hetzner and co is that I need to SSH (now i need to keep ssh keys secure and manage access to them) in for updates, logs, etc. I need to handle draining connections from the old app to the new one. I need to either manage https in my app, or run behind a reverse proxy that does tls termination, which I need to manage the ssl certs for myself. This is all stuff that gets in the way of the fact that I just want to write my services and be done with it. Azure will literally install a GitHub actions workflow that will autodeploy to azure container apps for you, with scoped credentials.
