It might be overkill, but what is your time worth? It's fun to build

system in a commercial project, it can be much cheaper to simply buy a
well supported package, with automatic updates and good high
availability setups built right in.

I keep going back to the old XKCD cartoon about automation to point
out when it's more efficient to buy a solution:
