High-Availability #683

Open jruels opened 8 years ago

jruels commented 8 years ago

Hello, I have deployed let's-chat using the Vagrantfile and through the all-in-one build script. I have tried creating a separate mongodb server with a letschat database, updating the config file to point to it instead of localhost, but the npm install fails.

Can someone please provide me steps for scaling lets-chat? I would like to scale the front end onto multiple servers and use haproxy as a LB. I would also like to have a separate server for mongodb so I can decouple the application layer from the database layer.

Thanks for the help!

As far as of the shelf solutions go you could use Docker-Swarm or Kubernetes #551
