Migrating a service to the cloud

Your service runs in the cloud 24/7—for you or for external users

You'll learn how to take a service built with a coding agent and deploy it to the cloud.

You'll work through two scenarios. In the first, you hand the whole job over to the coding agent and end up with a service for personal use—fast, but not without risks. In the second, you make the key architecture and security decisions yourself.

By the end, you'll know how to deploy your own services in a way that matches how they'll actually be used.

By the end of this case you'll have a working product and a set of reusable skills:

fast deployment to a cloud machine: DigitalOcean, SSH

moving code to GitHub while protecting keys and credentials

migrating data to a cloud database: Supabase, PostgreSQL, pgvector

splitting a service into backend and frontend

deploying to a hosting provider with a coding agent: Render, MCP

security and monitoring after launch: Supabase Auth, logs, analytics
