mzaidannas / VPS rails server setup.md
Created June 25, 2020 06:37 — forked from ziaulrehman40/VPS rails server setup.md
Server setup on ubuntu VPS(DigitalOcean, EC2 or any other) for rails

Excellent GoRails Article(which is main source for this guide too). I did benefited from lot of other resources online as well.

Creating droplet on DigitalOcean(DO):

(Skip this if you are not using DO, and create your own VPS instance on the service of your choice. Steps below may still be helpful.)

There are few options for this step, DO provide us some pre built images for lot of platforms in which they have pre-installed nginx, node and other related dependencies for each image. Rails one is little outdated, I tried that but didn't go very well for me, you can give it a shot if you have enough time. For this guide we will go with bear bone ubuntu 18.04 server. While creating the droplet, you will be asked to set an ssh key, just generate an ssh key with ssh-keygen on your local system and copy contents of .pub file into the textbox provided.

Elasticsearch cluster setup with NFS data directory

Installing an Elasticsearch Cluster

As always, there are multiple ways of setting up an Elasticsearch cluster. In this case, we will be manually setting up a cluster consisting of one master node and two data nodes, all on Ubuntu 18.04 instances on AWS EC2 running in the same VPC. The security group was configured to enable access from anywhere using SSH and TCP 5601 (Kibana).
