Re: [bitfolk] Docker, email, configuration and some rambling

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. n _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)lists.bitfolk.com https://lists.bitfolk.com/mailman/listinfo/users
