Hello all,
This is more of a ramble than anything else so feel free to simply
ignore it.
I have been thinking about what to do with my machine recently. I run
some small websites, db and email server.
Currently this is all setup via puppet. Every now and again I get the
VPS reinstalled to a more recent LTS distribution and go about updating
puppet to to use this and switch to a new VPS with the updated setup.
I have recently been thinking about whether or not it might be easier to
have a much more stripped down machine and use docker to run my services
on top of.
Not sure how I would do this with rails websites, I currently use
Phusion passenger to service them all.
Wondering if anyone has experience running docker on a VPS within
BitFolk. I'm not sure if there are any virtulisation limitations that
would stop this either.
I am going to be upgrading my machine to a more recent LTS version
soonish since my current distribution is going EOL this year.
So, yes, I will probabyl end up doing what I normally do but considering
dockerising my services and not even sure if it would work on a VPS or
whether it would just be more trouble than its worth.
