Welcome to Opensource Knowledgebase Wiki This wiki has been created for the sole purpose of creating documentation on deploying opensource applications on linux servers. This is not an exhaustive wiki and several howtos documented here should be used with discretion. Before moving any of the applications in production environment, thorough testing of the applications should be carried out. Some of the steps mentioned here may compromise security for production environments and may result into compromised environment or non-compliant systems. This wiki is to help users navigate through the nuances of implementing popular opensource applications and readying them for production use. The objective is to ensure users get ample time to test the environments rather than spending time in figuring out ways and tricks to implement applications. This is a short video that explains What is Opensource using the Lego that we all are so familiar with				About the Team Rajeev & Kedar have worked together on several projects and this wiki is a extract of all the knowledge they gathered while working together. My name is Kedar and have been in the tech industry for over 22 years. I have been mostly involved in the Linux environments and have been instrumental in setting up many Linux based environments from design stage to deployment stage. While my preference is Ubuntu I have worked on many distributions - Ubuntu, CentOS, RedHat, Opensuse etc. My name is Rajeev and I have been in the tech industry for over 18 years. I have worked on almost all platforms - Windows, Linux, Mac, BSD and I enjoy working on different projects. I love to share knowledge and contribute to the open source world in whichever way possible System Defaults The base default environment used in almost all documentation here, unless specifically specified, is Ubuntu Server. When the newer LTS releases are available, the base default environment will be migrated to Ubuntu LTS environments.The database used in the base default environment will always be Mariadb. Would love to hear from you on linuxwiki@groups.google.com
