nice article!
the only thing i question is why not just use local (not virtualised) versions of the servers.
you say that you have all the cpu and ram ressources when the virtual guests are off.
but if you use a local apache/nginx or iis you don´t have the overhead of a complete operating system.
and of course you can turn the servers on and off.
but nevertheless, i like articles on how to work more efficiently!
- shogunmike 16y agoThanks! For me, it is more about the convenience of not having to shutdown IIS, Apache, Nginx, etc. every time the host operating system boots. Further, since I am using a Windows host machine for most of my development, it is impossible to fully replicate the server setup on that OS - hence the virtualisation.
