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 thorough 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				Introduction Base default environment The base default environment used in almost all documentation here, unless specifically specified, is Ubuntu Server 18.04. 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 and unless specifically specified will use the Baracuda file format in place of the default antelope file format. One of the documents on this wiki will explain how to move from default antelope to Baracuda file format. The reason for doing this is that Moodle (www.moodle.org) needs baracuda file format and Moodle remains one of the most popular opensource LMS systems in the opensource world. About Me My name is Kedar and have been in the tech industry for over 15 years. I have been mostly involved in the Linux environment and have been instrumental in setting up many linux based environments from design stage to deployment stage. My experience has been across many distributions - Ubuntu, CentOS, RedHat, Opensuse etc., however I do not have any special affiliation to any distribution. I find Ubuntu a bit easy to try things on as there is a lot of support available on various forums, online portals which help in navigating through the various errors one might encounter while trying things out.I do not seek commercial interaction through this wiki, however will be happy to help the needy but not the greedy :)
