How to deploy a Temporal Production Cluster

Thank you for your question! You're asking some great questions about deploying a Temporal production cluster. Let's dive in:

How to deploy a Temporal Production Cluster?

You have a few options for deploying a Temporal Production Cluster:

Temporal Cloud (https://temporal.io/cloud): This is the simplest and most secure option. Temporal Cloud is a fully-managed service that handles all the infrastructure and operational overhead for you.
Self-Hosted (https://docs.temporal.io/self-hosted-guide/): This gives you full control over your infrastructure. However, it requires more effort to set up, manage, and scale.
Docker and Docker Compose (https://github.com/temporalio/docker-compose): This is a good option for testing and development, and can be used in production in some cases.
Kubernetes and Helm Charts (https://github.com/temporalio/helm-charts): This is a great choice for production environments that require high availability and scalability.
From Scratch: You can also deploy Temporal from scratch, but this is not recommended for most users.
What is the minimum number of servers to deploy a cluster?

The minimum number of servers depends on your requirements. If you're starting with a small workload, you can use one server with multiple services running on it. However, for a production cluster, it is generally recommended to have multiple servers for redundancy and scalability.

What is the minimum server requirements (cpu, ram, ...)?"

This again depends on your workload requirements. However, here are some general guidelines:

CPU: At least 2 vCPUs per server.
RAM: At least 4 GB per server.
Storage: At least 50 GB of disk space per server.

Remember that these are just general guidelines. You may need more or less resources depending on your specific needs.

The Self-hosted guide has more details and configurations.
