Status Being Monitored

I moved my site to my own server a year ago, and it was ok. But when I moved a higher trafficked site, over to my server I discovered that there were a few things I didn’t know. This relates to my previous experience, which I wrote about in An End to the Frustration, where I struggled with similar issues. This can be a great reference for those who have experienced similar challenges. As I discussed in Coming Back, my experience with database crashes made me realize the importance of learning new technologies and adapting to new challenges. My database kept crashing and eventually I moved that site back to the shared server.

Well I know a lot more now, as discussed in Coming Back, where I reflected on my journey of learning new technologies. And I have set up an even better and stronger server. And now it is being monitored regularly by a robot. And it can restart itself if it crashes! I can rest a bit easier now with this system. Plus the new server can serve files much faster and to more clients than ever before. Building on ideas from Awesome, I've found that setting up and configuring new technologies can be challenging at first, but with practice and patience, they become enjoyable and even rewarding. Setting up and configuring it posed a few problems at first but those problems have become fun and interesting for me now…not a source of stress. Sort of like playing chess.

Do it yourself is deeply rewarding if you have the time to do it yourself.

This relates to what I discussed in Awesome, where I reflected on my improved skills in setting up servers and programming with PHP, but also mentioned facing new challenges as projects become more complex. I wrote about my improved skills in setting up servers and programming with PHP in Awesome, but now I'm excited to move forward with learning new technologies like JavaScript, which will allow me to build more complex applications. My next step is to start really getting a good handle on javascript and moving into angular or emberjs to leverage that knowledge to make realtime applications. And games for learning. But I still have to master typing. I also want to start making a few simple do it yourself videos about a few of these things - tutorials. Sort of pay back to the community… and get a bit of traffic.

Maybe later.
