What's (generally) the best way to organize hosting for a large project?

Posted on September 13, 2022

I’m looking into hosting options for a project I’m working on that’s fairly large. There is a Node.js backend, two React web apps, and two React Native apps. I’m not exactly sure how to structure the hosting.

Should I have a Digital Ocean project for each app (i.e. one for the backend, two for the web apps, and two for the mobile apps, so five in total), or would one be sufficient? And as for Droplets, can I have everything running on one droplet (or multiple apps on one droplet), or should I split it up into five droplets?

Thanks for any advice!
