Thesaurus-Rex Web Server

thesr.online

Check out Thesaurus-Rex's Docker (Compose) containerized web experience built with an NGINX hardened reverse proxy & TLS/SSL encryption container in front of a containerized Waitress web server & Flask framework Python application.
It's running on a ufw firewalled Debian virtual machine in the cloud courtesy of Linode.
fail2ban protects the server from bruteforce attacks. Though, RSA asymetric cryptographic public-encrypt-key/private-decrypt-key pairs are used for administration of the host; OpenSSH server's password authentication is disabled.
I bought the thesr.online domain from Hover.
The TLS/SSL cryptographic certificate for the thesr.online domain is validated & signed by the Let's Encrypt open source certificate authority.

The Internet's Spooky

https://thesr.online has been on the internet for about 2 weeks now (5/12/23).
Here's a geo-map of thousands of malicious IP addresses that tried to bruteforce guess my credentials to gain control of my server from just some of the logs.
Also, here's a sample of the latest traffic to my server from the logs, showing probably botnets, trying to extract credentials, upload binary data, and exploit old software vulnerabilities.

Docker Compose -> Kubernetes

Venture capitalists & the media have been slow to catch on to my revolutionary thesr.online, but in anticipation of its imminent virality & demand for scale, I've migrated from Docker Compose to a Kubernetes cluster w/ Helm to orchestrate the deployment of my containerized apps as self-healing pods and auto-scale across nodes.

I first used Kompose to roughly translate my Docker Compose files to K8s resources.
Then, I used Kind (K8s in Docker) to run a local cluster to develop and test my project.
I used Helm to deploy the workload to my cluster.

See docker_k8s/README.md for the detailed steps.

In reality, this is completely unnecessary and more expensive to host, so I'll continue with Docker Compose approach for now. In the future, I could look into a proper ingress controller for K8s, uploading my images to a container registry, proper Persistent Volume Claims (PVCs), and maybe setting up some CI/CD to build the images.
