WATCHTOWER_DOCKER_SOCKET_PATH: /var/run/docker.sock # Needs to be specified if the docker socket on the host is not located in the default ‘/var/run/docker.sock’. Otherwise mastercontainer updates will fail. For macos it needs to be ‘/var/run/docker.sock’
# Optional: Caddy reverse proxy. See Caddy Docker Compose Example · nextcloud/all-in-one · Discussion #575 · GitHub
# Alternatively, use Tailscale if you don’t have a domain yet. See Easy setup: Container-less Tailscale as reverse proxy · nextcloud/all-in-one · Discussion #6817 · GitHub
# Hint: You need to uncomment APACHE_PORT: 11000 above, adjust cloud.example.com to your domain and uncomment the necessary docker volumes at the bottom of this file in order to make it work

For a production server, could this composer file be enough? For you friends who are already professionals with Nextcloud, would you add anything else to this file, or would you take it out?
I’m running a production server using Proxmox, with the following configuration for NextCloud:
Intel Xeon-E 2288G 4 (2 sockets, 2 cores)
16GB RAM
I have the possibility of increasing both processing and RAM memory.
Would you change any configuration in this file for a production server?
Thank you all !!!
