A trading system on a home laptop has three failure modes nobody plans for: the power, the Wi-Fi, and the person who closes the lid. Moving to managed infrastructure is not about scale, it is about removing you as a single point of failure at 09:15.
What deployment includes
- Containerised build, reproducible from a tagged commit.
- Deployment to your cloud account — you own the billing, the keys and the data.
- Market-hours scheduling, automatic restart on crash, single-instance locking so two copies never trade the same book.
- Secrets in a vault or parameter store, never in the repository.
- Heartbeat monitoring with alerts to Telegram or email when a strategy misses a beat, a feed goes stale, or a broker call fails repeatedly.
- Log shipping and retention so a bad day can be reconstructed line by line.
Multi-strategy and multi-user setups
Where several strategies or several traders share a platform, we add process isolation per user, per-user broker credentials, role-based access and a supervisor that knows which process belongs to whom — a class of bug that is easy to create and painful to discover live.
