CircleCI executes our build steps each time we push a new commit. Now, we want to build our Docker image and deploy it automatically to a machine that will serve our application to the public.
Our database and files are hosted on Amazon Web Services already, so we could also use AWS to serve our application. The problem is that setting up AWS correctly is a significant task, and it takes a large amount of time. We could use AWS ECS or EC2 to run our Docker image. Still, to correctly set up the network, security, and container registry is too complex to be explained in just one chapter. I recommend that you take a course or pick up a separate book, to understand and learn advanced setups with AWS, and the configuration that is needed to get a production-ready hosting.
We will use Heroku to host and deploy our application, as it is much more user...
