- What are the go-to ways to deploy apps?
by /u/Specialist-Leave-349 on February 13, 2026 at 2:20 pmI’m a bit embarrassed as a self taught dev who was into blockchains a lot, that I don’t really know how to deploy stuff. So I’m now running some completely physical business where I built internal tools, that mostly ran on my laptop directly so far (there were some reasons for this architecture). But now I want to deploy these tools so everyone can use them. And build further things. And I just never learned how to deploy in a simple way and use DBs in production. A freelancer I work with wants to go with azure but I’m scared if it’s an overkill (I really hate AWS and fear it could be similar). I’ve used postgres locally a while ago and kind of hated it, it just felt so complicated that I went back just using json files. Now for 1 tool we switched to sqllite. But there I don’t understand would I deploy the file to some hosting provide or would I use their internal DB? Or do you commonly use third parties for the DB? in addition to hosting the backend/frontend? Could someone give me a ELI5 please, I’d be so happy. Somehow AI is not so helpful because when I talk about SQLLite it recommends services I have literally never heard of, which makes me doubt they are the right choice. Thanks in advance for any insights. submitted by /u/Specialist-Leave-349 [link] [comments]

- Why don’t even “professional” hosting providers limit pm.max_requests?by /u/the_wordpress_dev on February 12, 2026 at 8:28 pm
As far as I understand, limiting pm.max is important for website performance. Many hosting providers allow 10, 20, or 30 pm.max requests depending on the package, but unlimited pm.max requests. Why is that? Isn’t that problematic? Addendum: Talking about “on-demand” submitted by /u/the_wordpress_dev [link] [comments]
- Strato or other providers – Special offer upon cancellation?by /u/JaMi_1980 on February 12, 2026 at 8:03 pm
Hi, does anyone know if “Strato” offers a better deal if you cancel a VPS contract? I’m considering renting a larger VPS there for mainly 1-2 months, but it’s too expensive for me to keep long term. At least not for that price (8 GB RAM) greetings submitted by /u/JaMi_1980 [link] [comments]
- Temp Email Bans – KnownHostby /u/Van-G on February 11, 2026 at 5:03 pm
Moved to KnowHost with small number of clients about 6 months ago and I continue to have clients getting temp bans on outbound email for having 5 returns. These are small ‘old school’ business who are not mass mailing. Moved from WiredTree (liquidWeb) vps and never had the issue. Anyone experience the same? submitted by /u/Van-G [link] [comments]
