A company I work for is using Heroku Pipelines, and we want to switch hosts due to all issues we’ve been having with this “managed host”. If there is an easy built-in way to handle this, great, if not then I imagine Docker & the Digital Ocean API shouldn’t be too bad.

Indeed another option is to use Docker and build your own CI/CD pipeline. Regards, Bobby
