For some months now, I’ve been trying to set up an Mbin instance, since as it’s more manual than the other softwares I found, and I understand things better if I can see the logic behind them. I’d rather do that before going for automated processes where if something breaks, I don’t know how to handle. However, trying to figure things out as I go, it’s so much stuff that I figured out instead what I knew was very little.
As I was also interested in hosting other sites, this made me reevaluate things, and turns out several things I don’t know, like how to host two sites in a same machine, how to handle horizontal attacks, what some tools are used for, etc.
So going back to the title, what to study? Maybe some specific book? Private classes/courses? Online tutorials? Something else? Just no university suggestion, please - from experience, they are extremely shallow at best.
Thanks in advance!


I would suggest you start reading up on reverse proxies, like nginx, caddy or traefik. And maybe docker, to containerize your services, so you don’t “splatter” stuff all over your filesystem.
Makes sense e.e"
Thanks!
