It’s safe, yes. It’s probably safer to host them on one box and have them listen on the loopback interface than hosting them on two. <br> <br>However, you might need to separate them for redundancy purposes or horizontal scaling.
Is that a good practice though?
Alex, you are correct. What I meant to ask is it okay to install all those components on the same machine to be used as a production server. <br> <br>
This doesn’t make any sense. Those things are separated. LEMP just means they’re all installed on the machine. So yes, use it.
