Server Provisioning and Configuration

Pizza, learning, and a great time to network with the fabulous PHP Community!

If you're looking to move beyond basic managed hosting, you're going to need to understand Server Provisioning and Configuration. This month Kurtis is going to introduce us to a few cloud providers, and then examine basic Provisioning and Configuration. We'll learn hands on by provisioning a new server on Vultr. After the new server is up and running, we'll install some packages and do some basic PHP configuration to get a basic app up and running. We'll discuss the differences between running PHP as an Apache module (mod-php), a FastCGI script, or processing the code through PHP-FPM unix socket. Level up your server knowledge to level up your career.
