Ask HN: What's needed for a minimal production Docker deployment?
There's a lot of tutorials/books online about getting a basic server with docker running but seemingly few that cover everything that is needed for a true production deployment (or is simply nothing more needed?). I would be curious, if anyone can share a good resource for doing real single-server production Docker deployment on your own VPS. I.e. best practices for/how to: - secure the server properly - credential management - making sure of security updates - observability - backups - automatic deployments - anything else that is needed Many thanks for any pointers 0 comments on Hacker News.
