Motive

Heroku have announced that the free plan of hosting docker containers will be discontinued in November 2022. Hence a change of another host is needed.

After checking serval hosts, I will migrate Storm Map Generator to Google Cloud Run, which allows free hosting of containers with auto sleeping like Heroku which allows to use the free tier more efficiently.

Migration Plan

• 1. Create Google Cloud Run service.
• 2. Create Google Cloud Artifact Registry.
• 3. Update GitHub Action (CI) to also support building container imaged and upload to GCAP.
• 4. Test and Iterate repo to allow container to be run on GCR with image from GCAP.
• 5. Setup auto deployment to GCR on GitHub Actions (CD).
• 6. Create domain and map to the GCR app. (https://stormmap.jamiephan.net)
• 7. Verify testing result: CI/CD, image, generated map file.
• 8. Update all related docs pointing to new the domain. (https://stormmap.jamiephan.net)
• 9. Update Try Mode 2.0 Installer to point to new domain.
• 10. Override Heroku container image with a notice mentioning domain and service migration. (https://stormmap.herokuapp.com, installer: https://stormmap.herokuapp.com/?type=INSTALLER)
• 11. Notice on Heroku will be host until November 2022.
• 12. After November 2022, shutdown heroku application.
