Server Setup Process

Step-by-step guide to launching production-ready servers

1

Provision Server

Choose provider, select OS (Ubuntu/CentOS), and launch VPS instance

$ doctl compute droplet create web-server \
--image ubuntu-22-04-x64 --size s-1vcpu-1gb
2

SSH Configuration

Connect via SSH, update system, and configure SSH keys for security

$ ssh root@server_ip
$ apt update && apt upgrade -y
3

Security Hardening

Configure firewall, disable root login, and install fail2ban

$ ufw allow 22,80,443
$ ufw --force enable
4

Install Stack

Install web server, database, PHP/Node.js, and required dependencies

$ apt install nginx mysql-server php-fpm \
nodejs npm -y
5

Deploy Application

Upload code, configure virtual hosts, and set up database

$ git clone project.git /var/www/html
$ mysql -u root -p < database.sql
6

Launch & Monitor

Start services, test deployment, and set up monitoring

$ systemctl restart nginx
$ curl -I http://server_ip
Scaling

Vertical vs Horizontal Scaling

Learn when to scale up (vertical) vs scale out (horizontal)

Small VPS

1 vCPU, 1GB RAM

~₹400/month

10k visitors/month

Medium Cluster

2 servers + Load Balancer

~₹1,500/month

100k visitors/month

Large Infrastructure

Auto-scaling Group

~₹5,000+/month

1M+ visitors/month

Vertical Scaling

Add more resources (CPU, RAM) to existing server. Simpler but has limits.

Horizontal Scaling

Add more servers behind load balancer. More complex but unlimited scale.

Auto Scaling

Cloud automatically adds/removes servers based on traffic. Most advanced.
