This is my website for defaria.com and also my corporate site clearscm.com. For the longest time (cira 2001 or so) I had been running my domain from my house. Initially I had run it on a Windows PC and used Cygwin to run Apache, ftp and email. My email is filtered by spam filters of my own creation called MAPS.
Unfortunately this meant 1) I needed a static IP address, which often ISPs charged significantly more for and 2) whenever I moved (and I move a lot) my website and email would be down.
Eventually I moved my server to DreamCompute where I implemented it as and OpenStack instance. I choose the smallest machine type as my website doesn't get a lot of traffic but I was occasionally running out of memory so I decided to reimplement it with a larger instance size and also decided to configure it with Ansible (see playbook below).
Essentially this is just a dump of what I had on my old server, warts and all. Over time I will clean it up, etc.
