Today we are excited to announce a new way to provision different types of servers within Laravel Forge. When creating a Forge server, you will now have your choice of six different server types: App Server, Web Server, Worker Server,Database Server and Cache Server.Of course, you may still provision a load balancer as well.
Application servers include: Web servers include the web server software you need to deploy your PHP / Laravel application, but do not include a cache or database.
Web servers include: Database servers include MySQL, Postgres, or MariaDB, but do not include a web server. Database servers are meant to be networked to your web servers.
