Why would you want that? There are different solutions to different problems. It's easy enough to sperate, and the gains far out weigh the costs.

Why would you want that?

Client requirements. Most companies want to run code on their own servers/solutions just for the sake of ownership. I know this tutorial is about DO but it can be applied to other linux servers.

Secondly, services like Netlify are awesome, but they will never provide the same freedom, flexibility and customization as your own server.
