Comprehensive Linux server configuration with secure LAMP/LEMP stack deployment
A well-configured Linux server is the foundation of any stable and secure web infrastructure. If you're launching a web application, setting up hosting services, or preparing for production deployment, my service delivers a hardened, production-ready Linux environment with either the LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) or LEMP (Linux, Nginx, MySQL, PHP) stack — fully secured, optimized, and aligned with best practices.
This isn’t just a script-run setup. I provide a tailored server configuration designed around your project’s needs — ensuring security, efficiency, and scalability from day one.
