Setup & Management Best Practices
We recommend using a 64-bit Linux distribution like CentOS, Ubuntu Server, or Debian for optimal performance. Consider using a filesystem like ext4 or XFS. Implement a robust backup strategy utilizing regular snapshots and offsite storage. Regularly monitor server performance using tools like Nagios, Zabbix, or Prometheus. Ensure the kernel is kept up-to-date with the latest security patches. For enhanced security, implement a firewall (like iptables or firewalld) and regularly audit system logs.
