Hello,  
Last news I heard from the AWX team is that they will deprecated the current docker-compose method. But they will replace it with another one that is today used by those who want to contribute to the project, like a dev env.  
They didn’t say yet when this change will be implemented I believe.

I am in the same case as you, we don’t have a K8s cluster and would really like an alternative that can take care of the build of the containers and database migrations like we have now with the current process.

Nicolas

You could check out the minikube based deployment that was added in January:

Thanks, but this is not an option: We can’t replace a production rollout with something running in Minikube…
