Deploy Streamlit using Docker-Compose

Can I deploy a 4-tier application (Streamlit UI + Nginx + REST API + text files) using Docker Compose, or should I consider a different approach instead?
Specifically:

  • Do I need to consolidate everything into a single entry-point script instead?
  • Should I use Kubernetes deployment models instead?

Thanks!

Do I need to consolidate everything into a single entry-point script instead?

I assume you mean the 1 container for everything pattern. IMO no.

One process (or service) per container makes it simpler. For example it enables you to reuse the canonical nginx image maintained by professionals.

Should I use Kubernetes deployment models instead?

Unless you have a reason (like to gain some experience) . I can’t see how k8s can simplify this case.
