Ask HN: How do you deploy your weekend project in 2022?

flyio since Heroku had the little accident, works for me

We just posted our first Show HN ever with your exact same setup, but s/python/go. If you're running it in Docker, then this might work for you too:

1) CloudRun ( run a Docker container exposing a port to the web )

It can autoscale.

2) CloudSQL ( managed Postgres and some other SQL choices )

We faced some friction getting the two connected. CloudSQL is available on an IP address, then in our code we have PSQL library which we specify the IP address to. The complication was that CloudRun instances can't actually "see" the CloudSQL. After navigating the GCP documentation, website, and some trial and error, it magically worked.

It was painful to get setup but it's running smooth now.

I like Serverless on aws. It's super cheap (free tier), and even the database in RDS has a free version for Postgres. Front end I like to deploy using Next.js and Vercel or Netlify.

I haven't had a problem scaling because its all lambda so it scales nicely and is all self contained for functions.

I've used DynamoDB with is even simpler but if you think you'd ever want something relational or more familiar I would definitely go with Postgres RDS

Serverless on Google Cloud (it scales and no manual management)

1. If DB is needed - Google App Engine with Datastore (default) or Firestore

2. If no DB - Google App Engine (default) or Cloud Run

GCP & GKE, I already have the cluster so everything pretty much lands there. Great way to learn k8s if you don't know it already
