we only have a single kitchen and it seems just above 200k is our ceiling for a single location. Expanding soon. we took down our revenue from indiehackers but somebody took a screenshot and posted on twitter of the stripe verified revenue. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EXbNBVUX0AAotOo?format=jpg&name=...
Is that gross?
> Solutions such as Kubernetes tout the benefits of zero-downtime deployments To be fair, these features of k8s are nice to have. Is there a similar tool for running single node (i.e. ec2) instances that offers zero-downtime deploys? One way you could do it is run a EKS cluster with a single ec2 node running your single-node setup. You could get the benefits of k8s while still running the simple single-node arch
You can do zero-downtime deploys on a single node with tools like seamless[1]. That works for Go but I'm sure there are other options for other languages. I'm not sure if/how you can do it with a containerized workload on a single node though. I haven't tried that. [1] https://github.com/rs/seamless
Awesome! I built a side-business that runs completely on Crystal + SQLite. Very light, fast service and makes ~$200k/mo. I just cp my sqlite file to S3 every 2 hours. From my app, i have a page[1] where i can load any snapshot database saved on S3. I can backup at anytime too with a click, which i do before deployment. [1]: https://i.imgur.com/Ls1Tnxc.png
As a non-native speaker I struggle with "make". To me "make" for a side-business means "personal income" but it looks like you mean "revenue"?
It's so simple, just don't have a lot of data that doesn't need to interact with other data and your problem is solved!

Is this a public business? Would you mind sharing, if so?
We do local cookie delivery[1]. We run our own mapping software and have our own drivers so most of the software is internal facing. Talked about it on Indie Hackers podcast[2], where i briefly mention SQLite as well. [1]: https://cravecookie.com [2]: https://www.indiehackers.com/podcast/166-sam-eaton-of-crave-...

systemd can be sufficient for a zero-downtime deployment.

If the side business makes $200k/mo, that usually means the revenue of the side business is $200k/mo.
Things are not quite that simple. You can't say "because my Go app serves a single request under no load in 50us, it will serve 20'000 per core under 100% load" you'd be surprised it will not. Modern machines are like a networked cluster themselves. You need to do a ton of work to tune both kernel and "hardware" parameters to identify bottlenecks with near-non-existing debugging tools. There is one truth here: we use…
