Deploy Django on VPS Ubuntu Apache Nginx uWSGI systemctl AWS

In this comprehensive course, we will embark on a journey to set up a Linux Virtual Private Server (VPS) utilizing cutting-edge technologies such as Apache2, Nginx, uwsgi, and systemctl. This setup is specially designed for hosting Django applications, yet it maintains the flexibility to support a variety of other technologies.

Our primary platform for this course will be an Amazon EC2 VPS. However, the skills and knowledge you acquire here are universally applicable and can be seamlessly transferred to work with Linux VPS (specifically Ubuntu 18.04) from any other providers like Linode or Digital Ocean.

A unique aspect of this course is the detailed walkthrough on configuring Apache2 as the primary web server. This server will interact with Nginx through a reverse proxy setup. Nginx serves a dual role – it acts as a server for media and static files and communicates with uWSGI, also via reverse proxy, for handling non-static file requests. uWSGI, being a versatile application server, will efficiently serve your Django applications.

One of the key learning outcomes of this course is mastering the automation of routine and critical tasks using systemctl. This includes automating the rebooting of applications in the event of a crash or during a VPS reboot, ensuring high availability and resilience of your applications.

An essential part of managing a VPS is ensuring its security. To address this, we will delve into using Amazon AWS security groups. These groups act as robust firewalls, safeguarding your VPS against unauthorized access and potential threats. By the end of this course, you will have a well-rounded understanding of setting up and managing a Linux VPS for hosting Django applications, ensuring they are both high-performing and secure.

This course is perfect for those who are looking to deepen their understanding of VPS management and application hosting using Linux, Apache2, Nginx, uwsgi, and systemctl. Whether you are a developer, system administrator, or an IT enthusiast, this course will equip you with the practical skills and theoretical knowledge to excel in this domain. Join us to embark on this exciting journey towards becoming proficient in managing and hosting applications on a Linux VPS.
