[erlang-questions] Deployment rebar3

[asdf asdf]

Hey everyone,

I’ve recently built a few applications that handle high volume message passing and all communicate with each other using Erlang’s ssl distribution. I’m working on deploying these to multiple servers - right now I am just using rebar3 release and creating a zipped tar of the release directory, moving it to a new box, and changing the some vm.args and sys.config options on the new machines. This doesn’t seem totally intuitive though… it take far longer than I feel like it should.

I’ve read about Docker and Kubernetes, and those seem promising, but our IT guys aren’t ready to move to containers and are using static nodes right now.

So, what is the best way to quickly distribute your erlang binaries and configure the enviornment? Have a quick script to do it automatically? Is the answer just containerize with Docker and wait a few months for the IT team to catch up with it? Or is there some other option out there?

Thanks for your help!
