If you just want to deploy your application, and don't particularly care about having control over your system architecture, you might want to consider a platform like Heroku.
Otherwise, a common solution, and one I'd personally recommend, is to have a standalone app executed via Upstart, running behind an nginx proxy. Upstart allows you to run a process as a daemon, and it can do useful things like automatically restart a process if it unexpectedly terminates. Upstart is by no means the only program that does this, but it's the one Ubuntu uses and is therefore stable and well-tested. A HTTP proxy server like nginx is useful for buffering against restarts and application failures. You can configure nginx to buffer a request while your server restarts, or to distribute request over a cluster of processes, or to cache static content. You could create the standalone app manually, with a -main function that calls run-jetty, or use the lein-ring plugin and the "lein ring uberjar" command to do it for you. - James On 29 June 2013 15:47, Ravindra Jaju <ravindra.j...@gmail.com> wrote: > I want to deploy a small web app - serving mostly static content.
