I came across this blog today while searching and I’m finding it very detailed, human, and instructive. For a beginner like me, this kind of resource is invaluable. What does a server failure feel like at a personal level? How do you make decisions about cost or utilizing existing hardware? These kind of thoughtful reflections along with practical walkthroughs of solutions make this a very nice resource when planning both the how and the why.
Maybe someone else will find it useful too.
The post is five years old. A lot have changed in that time.
I’m not sure if I would call the post “very detailed”. An overview, at best.
