Comment on How to Setup Your Own PaaS with Dokku and Node and React and Mongodb and Nginxparent

Right, but that's not a HA/continuous backup solution for the state (PostgreSQL db), so if the machine fails, you lose the database, and all the data since the last backup.

What I'd love is something Dokku-like in simplicity for setting up HA/master-slave postgreSQL. A tool that I just install on two servers and it does everything needed for HA such as replicate continuously.

Even without the HA, just continuous replication, this would be a great complement to Dokku.

I'm a heavy dokku user and I would love the same thing. Just simple replication to another machine in case of failure. A load balancer in front of them would be great for HA but I'd settle for manual fail-over as long as real-time data replication was as simple as dokku makes everything else.

Wouldn't that issue be the case for any DB host?
