I like reading these kinds of stories because it's impressive to see system administration pros out there. For me though (and I've never had a server this old)

I like reading these kinds of stories because it's impressive to see system administration pros out there. For me though (and I've never had a server this old), container images that have a declarative build structure that I can look at and modify in pieces is such a blessing to have. I've had to wrestle with some weird config stuff that someone changed once without even noticing too many times. I'm a livestock kind of guy, but I respect those with pets :)
