Railway is a platform that provides hosting solutions for full-stack web applications. It offers developers an easy way to deploy and manage their applications without worrying about infrastructure management. it also supports various programming languages, frameworks, and databases, making it suitable for a wide range of projects. it also simple to use and it also has a free tier which is has a little benefit than Render.

Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a term that captures tools built for developers to use where they don’t need devops engineers to deploy to the cloud. Heroku was the “category-defining” product here, and modern successors include Vercel, Render, Railway, Replit, platform.sh, Aptible, Northflank, and more. We have to say that there are some amazing products in this category. Developer Experience is at a premium!

Railway is a platform that allows you to easily deploy web apps and APIs. It offers a free tier of $5 worth of free usage per month when you sign up.

So this is what I did 1. Connected to the POSTGRES database on railway.app. 2. Ran first migration command for Django (after initiating project) 3. Removed the Entire DataBase on Railway (to see how Django responds) 4. Created a New Database again on the railway.app 5. Updated the variables for new DB credentials in Django 6. After Running the DEVELOPMENT server, I Found the Session Table Missing Error 7. Tried MAKE MIGRATIONS command, result (No changes detected)

Another question is around railway.app. Would the hobby plan be enough for such a kind of website ? its 5$/month and contains ssl cert, and easy github PR deploys, which would make it quite interesting for me .

Railway is a serverless platform that makes it easy to deploy and manage applications and databases. It offers a variety of features, including automatic scaling, high availability, and support for a variety of programming languages and frameworks.

The Server and Postgres Database are hosted on https://railway.app, with the client on Netlify.com’s free tier.

I am trying to deploy a discord bot on railway.app. It uses playwright Python to fetch information from websites. It runs smoothly on a local server however I get version `GLIBC_2.36' not found error while deploying and fails to deploy. Below is the error

DigitalOcean is a cloud infrastructure provider catering to developers, offering scalable virtual servers, storage solutions, networking services, and managed Kubernetes clusters. It simplifies application deployment, management, and scaling through its intuitive user interface and CLI (doctl), allowing developers to efficiently utilize cloud resources for their projects.

In this guide, we'll leverage the strengths of Neon serverless Postgres to establish a PostgREST API on DigitalOcean. With PostgREST, a PostgreSQL database is turned into a RESTful API.

A VM is the original “hosting” product of the cloud era. Over the last 20 years, VM providers have come and gone, as have enterprise virtualization solutions such as VMware. Today you can do this somewhere like OVHcloud, Hetzner or DigitalOcean, which took over the “server” market from the early 2000’s. Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft's Azure also offer VMs, at a less competitive price. In their case, the VMs are either a building block for other services or the value is in the ecosystem. See the section on public cloud below for more.

Every website or web application you have ever come across on the internet contains code deployed there by someone like you (or by aliens; I can't tell the extent of their involvement at this time) and for you as a web/software developer, knowing how to deploy your code to the streets of the internet via a remote server such as cloud servers is an invaluable skill to have today. There are several decent hosting services around that enable you to properly and securely host your website or web app such as Digital Ocean, Heroku, Vercel (mostly for front-end apps) and chief amongst them, Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Hacktoberfest is a month long celebration during October each year. 2023 is the ten year anniversary of the event and I'm excited that something like this still runs. Hacktoberfest is spearheaded by Digital Ocean. This year, ILLA and Appwrite have joined as the presenting partners.

Hacktoberfest, started by DigitalOcean, is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year 🥳 It is an annual event that celebrates open-source software development by having developers actively contribute to open-source projects. As of last year alone, there were over 147,000 participants.

My transitioning to MongoDB was swift and straightforward, primarily due to my prior use of the Repository pattern; I only had to update a single file. I was optimistic with that my MongoDB setup would be long-lasting. However, the unforeseen circumstances surrounding the Russian invasion of Ukraine led to my server crashing, resulted loss of the most of my data and projects. Fortunately I've since managed to recover and relocate everything I could to Digital Ocean (My referral link). So now everything is back in operation.
