If you're running NestJS in production, you've likely faced the classic dilemma: go with the ease of a PaaS but pay the "convenience tax," or manage your own clusters to save money but lose hours to DevOps. Lately, I’ve been experimenting with a third way: Decentralized Infrastructure . I moved a NestJS microservice over to Flux Cloud using their Deploy with Git feature. It gives you the "push-to-deploy" workflow we love, but instead of hitting a single corporate data center, your API is distributed across multiple independent nodes globally. Here is the technical breakdown of how to set this up and why the architecture is actually pretty clever for backend devs. Why a Decentralized Backend? Native High Availability: When you deploy on Flux, your app isn't on one server. It’s spawned across multiple separate, independent global nodes. If one provider goes offline, the network routing keeps your API reachable. Predictable Scaling: Because it’s a peer-to-peer resource network, the costs
