If I'm a college student designing a website for a company as an internship, should I do reseller hosting or just get their information and let them deal with it?

Hadlock posted:If you have the option to put "currently running a small business hosting for multiple clients for X years" on your resume after college I would certainly put some thought in to doing it. Obviously it depends on the situation. It's been a while since I was in college but I hear nowadays people leaving school have a hard time finding a job without 2 years experience already. Yeah. That's what I was thinking, but I don't completely understand reseller hosting. I'll PM the dude who runs Lithium and ask him. teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Mar 20, 2015 |

Not sure if there's a better thread for this, but are there any definitive guides for both attaching a FQDN to OpenVPN Access Server and getting an SSL set up on it? My google-fu here is not helping me much. I have an OpenVPN server running on Debian 9 if that makes a difference. teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 23:00 on Jul 7, 2019 |

What's the pros/cons between: 1. Set up a bunch of domain names and 1 server, create A records under each domain name to point to the same IPv4, and have NGINX blocks figure out what domain name goes to what document root 2. Create a server with a pool of IPv6 addresses, create a bunch of domain names, and set up rDNS configurations so that different IPv6 addresses point to different websites on the same server, and have NGINX blocks that go to different document root. Is the only different that each site will have a unique IPv6? teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 22:08 on Nov 13, 2019 |

henpod posted:Hey guys, I need some help with hosting. I don't know what i'm doing. Here is the timeline of events: Do you have the ability to edit your domain’s records in your registrar’s dashboard (e.g. A/AAAA, CNAME records)? If so, you’ll probably find a bunch of A records pointing to the IPv4 address of where your site was previously being hosted. The first step is get your app hosted, find out the IPv4 (and optionally IPv6) address of the server, and edit all the A records to point to the new address. At the least, you should have 2 A records - 1 for code:
code:
If you’re not self hosting, i’d assume there’s a way to do this in some kind of cPanel dashboard or whatever.

i've actually done this before and this is the guide i used: https://pentacent.medium.com/nginx-and-lets-encrypt-with-docker-in-less-than-5-minutes-b4b8a60d3a71 hopefully that helps. i remember having trouble with it as well

I have a Wordpress website that I use as kind of a hub for publishing videos hosted on Youtube and image galleries mostly on Flickr, and I'm looking to do the same for audio as well. object storage would probably be a good solution for this https://www.linode.com/products/object-storage/ it's pretty inexpensive and you'll get a URL out-of-the-box

i have a question a couple questions about shared CPU instances. i was reading this Linode guide: https://www.linode.com/docs/products/compute/compute-instances/plans/choosing-a-plan/#shared-cpu-instances and they basically explain how shared CPU instances are good for "low to medium" traffic, so my first question is what exactly does "medium" traffic mean? i had a spike in users yesterday and my site didn't do great during it, so i'm considering moving to a dedicated CPU instance, but i'm not sure if there's other things i can do to mitigate the latency without necessarily spending more on my own box. my other question is, say I was using about ~50% of my CPU during the spike on the shared CPU box, and my response times for pages were about 1-1.2 seconds long, is there any way i could go back to the spike and see if my shared box was being throttled? essentially what i'm asking is, how exactly do i know when i need to go from shared -> dedicated CPU? (i had about 8000 users that didn't have adblocker yesterday come to my site throughout the day)

okay i know nobody answered my last question, but i have another one god damnit last night i just tried out using object storage on my staging server for user avatars and icons that my site uses - all very small files (less than 200kB). when i deployed the code to upload the files to object storage and then read from it, the downloads were SOOOO slow. like 500ms to download a 150kB .jpg in the browser. what's the deal with that? is object storage just slow and i'm trying to use it for a use-case it wasn't designed for? previously, i was uploading the files through SFTP and reading them from just normal file storage. it seems like it's faster, but i'd like to know if i should keep with this or was there something i was not understanding about object storage. The Object Storage service I was using was Linode which uses s3 under the hood.

Twerk from Home posted:Object storage is a heck of lot higher latency than the disk of a server, whether real, virtual, on a SAN or whatever. Typically, when you're serving something from object storage to users browsers, you'll put a CDN in front of the object storage to cache things closer to users. Object storage latency is generally a bit better when your servers are hitting the object storage, because you're already in the providers network and there's probably even a connection open already. The expectation is still that you will cache things you need with low latency. good stuff thanks for this! i'm not exactly sure if i have a CDN in my budget but it's good to know all this. i recently added performance monitoring actually so i'm starting to get a better picture of where the the problems lie. the backend API is on the same box as the DB and the frotend is on a different box in the same datacenter

astral posted:Cloudflare has a comprehensive free tier. oooo yeah i actually do have cloudflare set up. for some reason i guess i thought image CDN caching was a separate service, so i guess i'm good on that regard. but yeah, either way the benchmark testing i was doing on object storage vs. disk storage was loading up my page with caching turned off, so i'll guess i'll just stick with disk storage if it's objectively the better option for my use case

Aware posted:1 - I use CF to forward to Gmail currently and you just setup your forwarded email addresses in Gmail as 'send as' accounts so you can choose whether you're sending from a custom email or your Gmail or whatever. Seems to work fine for me. It validates each email you add this way with an auth email sent to that address to make sure you control it. It's all free and works fine for my needs. butting into this convo to say did not know gmail had this feature. What do I set as the username and password here to go through my cloudflare alias? I already have my gmail account receiving from my cloudflare alias, but not sure how to configure outgoing email teen phone cutie fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Mar 3, 2024 |
