Deployment and Scaling

Meteor applications can be deployed on various platforms:

**1. Galaxy: Official Meteor hosting platform.

**2. Docker: Containerize your Meteor app and deploy it to services like AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure.

**3. Heroku: Use the Meteor buildpack to deploy to Heroku.

Example Dockerfile:

FROM node:18

# Create and change to the app directory.
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Install app dependencies
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install

# Bundle app source
COPY . .

# Build your app
RUN npm run build

# Expose port
EXPOSE 3000

# Run the app
CMD ["npm", "start"]

Example Heroku Deployment:

heroku create
git push heroku main
