How do you manage your Docker-compose or Podman data? (discuss.tchncs.de)

All the times I just put docker-compose.yml to one user (my user) directory and call it a day.

But what about a service with multiple admins or with more horizontally split up load?

Well I'm also not entirely sure what you're looking for. But here's my guess 😅

None of this stuff should run under the account of a human user. Without docker/compose, I would suggest that you create one account for each service, deploy them to different directories with different permissions. With docker compose, just deploy them all together and run it all under a single service account. Probably name it "docker". When an admin needs to access, you sudo su - docker and then do stuff.
