title:Single Host Topology for a Deis PaaS

Single Host

In a single host topology, the proxy and runtime services of a :ref:`formation` run on a single :ref:`Node`. Though an obvious single point of failure, a single host formation can work well for small use-cases.

Create the Layers

Create a Dual Proxy/Runtime Layer

$ deis layers:create dev nodes ec2-us-west-2 --proxy=y --runtime=y
Creating nodes layer... done in 3s

We create a new layer in the "dev" formation called "nodes". The layer has proxy set to "yes" and runtime set to "yes", which means the layer will host containers as well as route inbound traffic to them.

Scale Automatically

If you've configured automated provisioning using the Deis :ref:`Provider` API, you can use the deis nodes:scale command.

$ deis nodes:scale dev nodes=1
Scaling nodes... but first, coffee!
done in 263s

This will automatically provision a new node (separate from the controller) which will host the entire formation.
