boring is key.

linux vm/dedicated (bare metal) server depending on the compute power I need

docker. plain docker. no kubernetes django htmx (the successor to intercoolerjs) postgresql traefik pycharm as my IDE of choice Scaleway, Hetzner, or DigitalOcean for hosting.

However, I now have some enterprise customers who want SSO. I will need to figure out how Keycloak fits in.

No remote storage like s3 No queues/streaming like kafka or rabbitmq (I use postgres for that)
