Linux web-stack provisioning
Prepare a fresh Ubuntu or supported Linux server for an agreed PHP application and its runtime requirements.
- Runtime and package setup
- Database connection
- Permissions and application paths
- SSL and deployment verification
PHP production environments · Cloud delivery
Linux infrastructure shaped around the PHP application it serves.
I prepare, migrate, and troubleshoot supported PHP environments across AWS EC2, Ubuntu, DigitalOcean, Vultr, Apache, Nginx, Cloudflare, object storage, and defined reverse-proxy or load-balancer paths.

Focused AWS & Linux Infrastructure capabilities
Work grounded in the existing platform and its real operating environment.
Each capability is scoped against the installed version, hosting, current behavior, and surrounding customizations before implementation begins.
Apache and Nginx delivery
Configure or troubleshoot the web-server path around virtual hosts, rewrites, PHP delivery, static assets, and proxy behavior.
- Apache virtual hosts and rewrites
- Nginx server blocks
- PHP application routing
- Origin and error diagnosis
AWS application support
Support application workloads using AWS EC2, Amazon S3, Ubuntu, and AWS CLI within the defined product scope.
- EC2-hosted PHP environments
- Amazon S3 integration
- AWS CLI checks and operations
- Application-aware troubleshooting
DigitalOcean and Vultr environments
Prepare or migrate supported PHP platforms on DigitalOcean or Vultr with attention to files, database state, configuration, DNS, and release checks.
- Destination review
- Web-stack preparation
- Application migration support
- Post-migration verification
Reverse proxy and load-balancer paths
Configure an agreed traffic path, upstream routing, and related application or proxy settings for a defined web stack.
- Request-path mapping
- Upstream configuration
- Header and SSL context
- Routing verification
Cloudflare, DNS, and SSL troubleshooting
Trace origin connectivity, proxy mode, DNS records, SSL mode, redirects, and cached delivery around an existing site.
- DNS and origin checks
- SSL path review
- Redirect diagnosis
- CDN-aware delivery checks
Clear service boundaries
Specific scope is a sign of credible delivery.
These boundaries preserve the difference between evidenced AWS & Linux Infrastructure work and a broader service that has not been claimed.
Boundary 01
Application infrastructure scope
This work supports defined PHP application environments. It does not imply open-ended managed hosting, around-the-clock operations, or ownership of every service in a cloud account.
Boundary 02
Capacity requires requirements
Load balancing experience does not by itself claim a traffic capacity, availability target, or scaling result. Architecture and testing depend on real workload and recovery requirements.
Boundary 03
Provider access and costs remain external
The client controls cloud accounts, billing, quotas, domain ownership, licenses, and provider approvals. These are reviewed before changes that depend on them.
Boundary 04
Migration risk is planned explicitly
Backups, DNS timing, file volume, database consistency, maintenance windows, and rollback expectations must be agreed for production migrations.
AWS EC2, AWS S3, Ubuntu, DigitalOcean, Cloudflare, and related platform work draw from public profile evidence and representative projects. Vultr, Apache, AWS CLI, and load-balancer capability are stated as confirmed experience without invented scale or outcomes.
AWS & Linux Infrastructure project evidence
10 representative cases matched from the portfolio.
Matches are selected from project titles, summaries, categories, and technology lists—not from unrelated generic case studies.

AWS & Linux Infrastructure delivery process
Review first. Scope clearly. Verify the affected path.
Credentials are requested only after the scope and access requirement are understood, using an agreed secure channel.
Inventory the application and environment
Review PHP and database requirements, services, storage, DNS, SSL, traffic path, provider, and current access before selecting changes.
Define the target state
Document the required server layout, web server, runtime, storage, routing, migration path, and acceptance checks.
Prepare with recoverability
Confirm backups or rollback context, then configure the agreed Linux, Apache, Nginx, AWS, VPS, or proxy components.
Deploy or repair the application path
Connect files, configuration, database access, storage, web delivery, and DNS or SSL behavior for the supported application.
Verify production behavior
Check the main application routes, uploads or assets, redirects, logs, permissions, and the agreed operational handover.
AWS & Linux Infrastructure FAQ
Scope answers before the first message.
If the exact issue is not covered here, send the current platform behavior and I will say whether it fits the represented work.
Yes, once the application, PHP version, database, web-server, SSL, DNS, access, and hosting requirements are known.
Yes. The relevant configuration can include virtual hosts or server blocks, rewrites, PHP routing, static assets, proxy behavior, and production troubleshooting.
Yes. Confirmed experience includes EC2-aware PHP hosting support, Amazon S3 media workflows, existing-media migration support, Ubuntu, and AWS CLI operations.
Yes, for an agreed PHP application and supported Linux stack. DigitalOcean migration is represented in the project record; Vultr is confirmed provider experience without a claimed project outcome.
Yes, for a defined request path and web stack. Capacity, high-availability targets, health policy, sessions, and test expectations must be scoped rather than assumed.
This page describes setup, migration, integration, and troubleshooting. Any recurring monitoring or operational coverage would need its own explicit agreement.
