What this network runs on, since the question keeps coming up:

  • UNA on a single mid-sized VPS with PHP-FPM and MySQL
  • Nightly database and uploads backups to a second provider
  • A Next.js front end for the web and an Expo app for phones, both talking to the UNA API
  • Cron and the queue worker under a process supervisor, so they restart on their own

Nothing exotic, and it has held up fine at our size so far. Ask me anything about it below.
