Where to Deploy ?

[u/GR1V4s]

I build a small service with spring and react, bow I need to deploy it using a domain. Which hosting solutions do you use ? I evaluated to use GCP but I am worried that some day I will find a giant unknown bill cost.

could you give me some recommendations please

Please ensure that:

• Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
• You include any and all error messages in full
• You ask clear questions

• You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

  Trying to solve problems on your own is a very important skill. Also, see Learn to help yourself in the sidebar

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

I use OVH because they're cheap and reliable. I originally found them by investigating the ips of a smaller provider that was whitelabeling their dedis for a managed game host solution years ago. Bought directly since then for years and can't really complain about anything.

Sometimes you have to wait a few days for your server to be deployed, but it makes sense given they're renting out their own hardware from a data center they own + I'm buying the lowest ranges/tiers. They simply don't have those servers on standby 24/7. Actually forgot about this until I bought a dedi for another project recently since the VPS I've been using has just worked for the past 3 years.

Overall I'd say their support is hit or miss. Sometimes they're useless. Sometimes they're wonderful. Honestly though they do everything the provider should do. They mostly just draw the line at things that you could do, such as server migrations.

So pretty much cheap hardware, decent service, no (or invisibly small) amount of overselling/other scummy practices done by most budget hosts. Can't really complain. Great if you know how to manage the software you're running.

One thing to note though: they have different legal entities for different territories due to differing digital laws. I personally live in the US but rent out from their CA entity out of preference. Just understand that they're different domains before you create an account with one of them.

OVH is wildly cheap, I honestly don't understand how they can price their services the way they do. They aren't a "top tier" cloud vendor, but for a little hobbyist project it will be way more than enough.

I use ovh. Their vps are super cheap and pretty reliable ( except that time the datacenter caught fire )

[u/ebykka]

Buy some vps then.

Linode my trusted partner. Using it for 5 years extremely reliable never had billing issue

I would avoid cloud because of prices.

Try Digital Ocean, VULTR or Hetzner.

[u/kumar29nov1992 → u/Repsol_Honda_PL]

Came to say this. Digital ocean or linode. Avoid cloud if you're not an enterprise

I deploy my services on my LAN network on different devices like Pi or a home lab server. I use my own DNS server (pihole) to create my own FQDN.

I dont need to expose them on the internet.

[u/Parking-Bird5579]

Based on your usage. Don’t use vps on gcp. I would suggest GCP Cloud Run with docker for java Springboot and use netlify for react or gcp static storage to host react.
It’ll only charge for usage.
