Question
Magento 2.4 OS, Web Server and Database
I recently opened a digital ocean account and there is a Magento 2.4 installation on the Marketplace including ElasticSearch 7 which is now required with 2.4
I started a web store with my shared hosting on shared hosting and already have some issues including inode limits and the last of ability to install ElasticSearch.
As a result, I explored additional options and had intended to install MAgento 2.4 with ElasticSearch on Centos8 using this link: https://github.com/magenx/Magento-2-server-installation from https://www.magenx.com/.
However, I now see there are so many options. The DigitalOcean Marketplace installer is using Ubuntu, the article on github above use CentOS
One uses Apache and the other uses Nginx
One uses mysql or mariadb and the other uses Percona
I’ve also seen many tutorials on a basic install of magento including just the web server, database and mysql. They all uses different options for the OS, database engine and web server.
I am familiar enough with SSH commands to do this install on my own. But I am more familiar with CentOS commands then Ubuntu.
Nonetheless, given all the options and starting a new online store I want to make the right choices to start.
Can anyone offer and comparisons or recommendations that would help?
