  • Not to butt in into your conversation, just wanted to drop that me and my colleagues use what we call the “clone cars” method to combat our company’s naming scheme

    So for example we dubbed CAPROD01 “Cappy” NASPROD01 became “Nasir” LTPDEV02 became “Luigi” (because he’s always number 2)

    Of course in written communication we use the full name (which is much less of an inconvenience) and we always double check in conversation or spell out full names before doing anything critical







  • There are a TON of different tutorials and videos.

    If you’re looking for a beginner friendly interface for your servers; I recommend “Cockpit” you just “sudo apt-get install cockpit” and it gives you a nice to use web interface to manage most of your servers, you can then install plugins as needed, for example you can install net bird or Pangolin to make it accessible from the internet.

    If you want something more like what I’m doing here (Virtualization) you can try Canonical’s version of this which runs on ubuntu, They’re called LXD https://canonical.com/lxd/manage

    Basically they’re tiny ritualized linux instances inside of your main ubuntu server (Containers) with their own kernel so that changes on the base server don’t bother your other apps.
