Currently, i have deployed the backend on vercel free tier and using supabase free tier as database. Since vercel doesn't support celery, i am thinking of deploying it on railways. Should i deploy just the celery on railways or move the complete backend on railways? If i should move the complete backend on railways, should i move the db from supabase to railways as well? How much difference would it make in terms of speed and latency if all the components are deployed on the same platform? The backend in not that heavy and includes very minimal celery tasks.
The user is seeking advice on deploying their backend currently on Vercel and using Supabase as the database. They are considering moving Celery tasks to Railway and ask whether to migrate the entire backend and database there. Community members suggest alternatives like Render and discuss the benefits of deploying all components on the same platform to reduce latency.
I have only used vercel for static pages. But I have deployed some applications using Render. You can try that once
Seconding Render! They have a pretty generous free tier and you’ll be able to build a full end to end MVP. You can even use render to deploy your frontend as well on the same org if you want
I used railway and it works fine plus it’s super easy since you can just set the root to whatever which makes your front end and backend easy to separate. You can then load your database via docker to the database there.
30 day free trial and 5 bucks a month after isn’t a bad deal.
