Why I chose PM2 over Docker for most services

This post was originally shared on LinkedIn as part of my build-in-public series. I'm Jerome Jay Tuazon, a fractional IT consultant helping Canadian businesses automate their operations through n8n, AI, and modern tooling. This 40-word post covers what I learned recently - I'm expanding it here with more context.


Everyone said containerize everything. I spent a week setting up Docker for all my services. Then I had to debug a crash at 2am and spent 45 minutes just getting into the right container shell. I ripped it all out.


Want automation like this for your business?

I help Canadian businesses cut manual work and ship faster using n8n workflows, AI tooling, and lean B2B systems.
