Technical requirements
We start with the assumption that the reader has a production environment available. Typically, this kind of environment can be on a virtual machine, such as one (or more) Amazon EC2 instances, or an environment provided by cloud PaaS solutions, such as Platfrom.sh, or by cloud servers/service providers, such as Digital Ocean or Vultr.
We will not address the specific installation of these environments; however, we will give indications of a typical architecture that combines the use of a web server such as nginx on one (or more) GNU/Linux-type virtual machines.
