Hi there,

There are two suggestions:

You could use the DigitalOcean App Platform, that way you would not need to do any server management and would only need to define your environment variables. Here is a quick guide on how to do this:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/app-platform/quickstart/sample-apps/ruby/

With the App Platform you would need to use a Managed Database cluster in case that you need a database:

https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/databases/postgresql/

In case that you already have some experience with managing servers, you could use a Droplet rather than the App Platform. There is a Ruby on Rails 1-Click installation image that you can use here:

Once you create your server, you could use git clone to clone your project on the server and complete the setup there.

Hope that this helps!

Best,

Bobby
