Deploying Web Applications Quicker and Easier with Caddy 2 by Tyler Charboneau

Today’s web applications — and especially enterprise variants — have numerous moving parts that need continual upkeep. These tasks can easily overwhelm developers who already have enough on their plates. You might have to grapple with:

-TLS certificate management and termination

Consequently, the task of building, deploying, and maintaining a web application has become that much more complicated. Developers must worry about performance, access delegation, and security.

Lengthy development times reflect this. It takes 4.5 months on average to build a complete web app — while creating a viable backend can take two to three months. There’s massive room for improvement. Web developers need simpler solutions that dramatically reduce deployment time.

First, we’ll briefly highlight a common deployment pipeline. Second, we’ll explore an easier way to get things up and running with minimal maintenance. Let’s jump in.
