Tools of the Trade, 2020 Edition


It has been 20 years since Joshua Schachter started this thread on HN for discussing hosted useful services.

The contribution in the thread introduced many interesting SaaS services which can immensely help in deploying services as well as development.

These days, lots of that stuff is available as SaaS. What are the tools and services people use instead of hosting their own?

9 years. And since the list, at least the history what was mentioned in the past, moved to https://github.com/cjbarber/ToolsOfTheTrade

Digital Ocean has been great for us. It's easy to setup and scale, offers lots of server "droplet* types, and is inexpensive.
