Setup & Management Best Practices
We recommend using a 64-bit Linux distribution such as Ubuntu Server or CentOS Stream. Configure RAID 1 for data redundancy. Implement a robust backup strategy using tools like rsync or Veeam. Utilize monitoring tools like Nagios or Prometheus to track server performance. Regularly apply kernel updates and security patches. Hardening the server with a firewall (e.g., iptables or firewalld) is essential.
