We at IXVD chose to deprecate our old server "neo" to make place for a new server architecture.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
EUX will stays the same however internally we redesigned the infrastructure to be even more secure*
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# What changed?
|
||||||
|
We are still using the same service provider, however we're using their cloud option.
|
||||||
|
This platform allows for scaling, as this project's funding comes out of our own pockets, being able to scale down is a nice plus.
|
||||||
|
Also, with the new architecture we can easily add new services and not have to worry about interference of ports or such since we can spin up a new server for it, again a big plus.
|
||||||
|
We're also able to monitor services without an external party; with our old server, if it we're to turn off we would not know without an external party notifying us.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Pricing
|
||||||
|
Our old server had a monthly cost of about 50 euros**.
|
||||||
|
With the new architecture it's at about 40 euros** which can easily scale up or down depending on use.

# Restic as backup.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We use restic as backup tool because we use multiple servers in our infrastructure and restic allows for compact backups.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
We can enforce a policy to keep all data but lose the ability to "snipe" a backup from a specific date.. over time.
|
|
||||||
To view the current policy, check out ixvd/hub/backup-policy.txt.
