backendlore VS node-js-getting-started

Sure it's not for everyone. I learnt a lot doing cash strapped startups where there wasn't a devops person. AWS can get expensive, especially when you start using more and more services (lambda,dynamodb,rds,elasticache etc) although it can be easily scaled.

Note, you probably shouldn't do it by hand (setting up your own services). You'd use Ansible/Terraform.

For those that are interested but not quite ready, here's a great article [0].

7. Backendlore

A good example of ASCII diagrams: https://github.com/fpereiro/backendlore

I have found this to be useful: https://github.com/fpereiro/backendlore

It is more about writing backends generally, but in it he uses Redis as a primary database and walks through durability and scalability.

4. Node.js Getting Started Heroku

In my experience Heroku is by far the simplest, it doesn’t involve Kubernetes or containers, and they have an accessible tutorial for node https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-nodejs. I’d recommend following it if you’re curious. You don’t even have to SSH into the VM and instal things, you just have to push to git and it will deploy for you.

In this tutorial, I’m going to use Heroku. Here’s a guide on how to create and initialize a Heroku App to your NodeJS project.
