    The deployment experience is awesome, but for me[0] the killer feature of Fly.io is their Anycast network and features such as FLY_REPLAY and LiteFS that make clusering a breeze[1].

    [0]: using them for https://lastlogin.io

    I use obligator with ephemeral storage, no db, 100% code driven setup.

    In my opinion this is the simplist option.

    Sorry, this is indeed not very clear. Others already answered well, but if you look at the example[0] config you can see how you would use your own instance of obligator as a client to the instance running at lastlogin.io. This is a bit meta, but applies equally to any client application.
