I'm graduating from Dokploy by deploying a docker swarm and a nodejs/postgres stack using ansible. The swarm is new to me, and it's been pretty cool to see for the first time how I can power down one VPS with a non-replicated backend service and the service goes down for only a few seconds before the swarm automatically re-schedules the service on a healthy swarm node and the service comes back online.

Next I gotta figure out daily backups and a way to privately access pgadmin without exposing it to the public internet. I'm thinking of having pgadmin share a tailscale container's network so it ends up on my tailnet, also a first for me. I've got a deadline on the 15th, I'm excited to see it all come together.
