Multi-deployment approaches

Capistrano is a tool used for remote server automation and deployment, typically with a single setup per application. However, the complexity of managing deployments for projects with multiple applications can be addressed by using either a decentralized or centralized multi-deployment approach. In the decentralized approach, each application's deployment configuration is separate, leading to challenges like code duplication and a difficult workflow. Conversely, the centralized approach consolidates deployment configurations into a single repository, enhancing separation of concerns, reducing code duplication, and increasing security, although it may complicate continuous delivery setups. CapHub assists in establishing a central deployment repository by generating a Capistrano skeleton for multiple applications. Additionally, when using Semaphore for centralized deployment, specific commands are used to integrate and execute the deployment processes from a central repository.
