Quite honestly, as a UNIX noob, the step by step tutorials were priceless.
I know that Linode have these tutorials now too, but I actually have no idea how to easily move my installation from one server to the other!
Any tips?
- mdewinter 13y agoUsing a deployment/orchestration framework like Ansible or Chef allows you to define the server setup once and roll it out many times everywhere. You might want to take a look at that.
- thenomad 13y agoThe poster above mentions being a UNIX noob. My admittedly limited experience with the various deployment frameworks out there implies that they're not particularly noob-friendly. Chef, for example, will do the job (I think), but I'd anticipate someone who was relatively new to Linux and, for example, didn't know Ruby, needing a weekend to figure out how to move a basic installation of a webapp from one VM to another. That's a bit of a leap from DO's "save snapshot, done".
