Provisioning a Linux to Install Zabbix Server
Video Lecture
Description
I have many options where to install Zabbix server.
In this course I want the server to be on 24 hours a day, and to be easily accessible from many physical locations.
I decide that hosting it using a cloud provider is best and I use digital Ocean. I could use Hetzner, AWS, Azure, GCP or many others.
You can also install Zabbix Server on a local Linux VM if you wish.
If you would also like to use Digital Ocean VM, you can create a $5 a month server using this link.
Digital Ocean (FREE $50 - 30 Day Credit). Occasionally the offer fluctuates to $100 Credit for 60 days.
The $5 a month Ubuntu 18 VM is adequate for all the tasks in this course and it only takes a few minutes to set up.
You also have the option to cancel your account before the FREE $50 - 30 Day Credit expires. Occasionally the offer fluctuates to $100 Credit for 60 days.
Alternatively, I also have a Hetzner Cloud coupon where you will receive €20 in FREE credits.
