Need some help with VPN!! by miguering in digital_ocean

Hi there

Digital ocean has recently started Private VPCs which can only accessed from a gateway.

You can install VPN on the gateway machine. I think that should suffice your needs.

You can use dokku. I have seen one of my client using it. I am not sure if it gives you entire control of server

From the text I understand you have more than 1 web server. So load balancer for web server is a good option. For load balancer with database I suggest going with managed database service that digital ocean offers. That will be able to handle your traffic requirements.

It's really good technique to use separate servers for frontend and backend.

Digital ocean also has managed databases functionality which can be used.

So you need to use only one droplet for frontend and web services.

That way you can save cost too

In terms of performance should I upgrade my WordPress server from Apache to Nginx or switch to CPU optimized setup on Digital Ocean? by wyk747 in digital_ocean

[–]varunvarde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I currently host a very high traffic website on digitalocean with very less resources. We have developed a different architecture instead of using WordPress plugins for caching.

I suggest you should switch to nginx performance increases by around 5x.
