How hard for a Software Developer to Maintain a Server
- by Samy
I'm a software developer and don't have much experience as a sysadmin. I developed a web app and was considering buying a server and hosting the web app on it.
Is this a huge undertaking for a web developer? What's the level of difficulty of maintaining a server and keeping up with the latest security patches and all that kind of fun stuff. I'm a single user, and not planning to sell the service to others.
Can someone also recommend an OS for my case, and maybe some good learning resources that's concise and not too overwhelming.
