An Ubuntu Docker Server is the starting point for nearly all OER Foundation FOSS services is a fully Free and Open Source Software-based server (either in the 'cloud' or on physical server hardware) running the Ubuntu Linux operating system and Docker container layer, with the Docker Compose control scripts.

Agenda
We will


 * provision a new cloud Ubuntu Linux server instance,
 * set up a domain to point to the instance,
 * access it via SSH (from a command line) as well as via a browser-based 'console',
 * provide a brief explanation of how a Linux server is configured, like filesystems
 * create a non-root user with 'sudo' capability
 * log back in as the new user (explaining why we do this)
 * configure standard services
 * etckeeper configuration management
 * UFW firewall
 * networking
 * outgoing SMTP email
 * then install Docker:
 * the Docker container layer, and
 * the Docker Compose control scripts
