RE: The Daily Adventures of a SteemPeak Developer #1
Make sense, but I prefer to do that move when I see that the current setup cannot handle the load anymore. Also I don't want to rely on a dedicated server without a backup for when I'm off the grid :)
But hopefully DigitalOcean will provide a viable Heroku alternative soon enough and I can switch to one of their droplet.
Good point; In the medium-term we will also move to a more distributed infrastructure with a backup server, but since our backend doesn't use the Steem API but accesses our customized Hivemind, nothing works anyway if our server is down and hosting a second Hivemind means paying for another dedicated server with large SSD storage
