Abstract
I (@emcp) run a small business helping small companies host their website. We utilize Juju to stand up a (fairly) simple architecture of NGINX, Certbot, and a Javascript framework we’d open sourced called MAHRIO. We’ve noticed AWS can be very very expensive (and risky) to utilize for everything. Since we knew LXD, we knew Juju… we had the power to avoid using EC2 if we could only reach our serves from across the globe (I am based in Sweden and my business partner and cofounder is based in California).
Enter Tailscale, the Wireguard backed mesh VPN solution. We installed LXD, Juju, and Tailscale together… spun up our resources on a spare gaming laptop with 16GB… forwarded port 443/80 … and with Tailcales TLS feature got a worldwide accessible admin page WITHOUT needing EC2 ($$$$) .
