Where does your service runs when you switch off your computer?

In the previous section we saw how Dockerfile allowed us to package our environment in a runnable container. We ran it from our local machine.

The next step for our application to have visitors is to have it run all the time in someone computer.

What we will do in the next step is to pass our dockerfile to someone that will build it and then run it in a datacenter for us.

Platform as a Service (PaaS)

While working in the industry you will often hear SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, … the “aaS” of those acronyms all refers to “as a Service” and what it means is that it is someone else bother to deploy, manage and maintain them and you just use the service.

A PaaS is a Platform, meaning a full fledge working place where you can deploy application, as a service. It is someone else problem to make sure the Network is working, your application have enough disk or that it runs correctly, you just use its capabilities.

There is plenty of such PaaS to deploy websites, the most known remaining Netlify, Render and Vercel.

For this section we will use Render to deploy your application and make it available to anyone and everyone freely.
