I'm teaching Django & MySQL course and the question is: Is there any service which allows to connect to the remote server with pre-installed software.
Here is functionality I want:
1/ Have remote server with Linux/Windows and GUI
2/ Install there software I want (e.g., Django, python, mysql) or have it pre-installed
3/ Enable multiple logins and users : I don't want my students to install the software on their desktops, but to connect to the server and practice there.
Each student should have his own session and working space.
It's kinda VPS(Virtual Private Servers), I guess. But VPS is rather expensive way.
buy a server with WHM + cPanel + Softaculous.
If a VPS is expensive, try to found a WHM reseller package with Softaculous.
With WHM you can create hosting accounts for your students each one with a cPanel access.
With Softaculous your students can install software on the server in 1 click.
Regards.

I have installed Hyperion EPM 11.1.2.4 in CentOS 7 i.e Foundation Services, Essbase and Financial Reporting. The database I have used is SQL Server.
CentOS is not the officially supported OS for Oracle HTTP server and hence I went ahead with Weblogic HTTP server.
Once I start the weblogic server and start all the EPM services, and when I login into the weblogic server administration console, I find my foundation services server in Admin state
Also when I login into my Oracle Fusion middleware, I can see all my foundation services and financial reporting Servers down.
And hence I am unable to access the servers like workspace, calculation manager.
But few of my servers are up and are in running state such as APS, CALC, EAS, EPMAWEBTIER. But I only can access Essbase.
I request you to check the images attached.
Oracle Weblogic Administration Console
Oracle Fusion Middleware
How can I access these servers?
Am I having these much of troubles just because I used weblogic HTTP server instead of Oracle HTTP server?
if you are installing EPM for learning purposes, I suggest you to take the easy way and use a supported OS. Installing this software into a non supported OS will give you additional problems that you will never be sure if are caused because the non-supported OS, or because your installation / tuning is wrong.
If you download and install a Windows Server VM, it would not expire, just show you the active license message, but it will be full working.
For learning purposes / temporal Virtual machines, it is way to go.
Thanks.
would like to know if I can install and run WebSphere application ND 8.5.5 server on Linux using Active Directory account with no challenges in production operations?
If you mean the authentication model for WAS apps, then I have many customers that do this. To address Nic3500's concern, you should ensure that when connecting WAS to AD, you are using a Federated Repository model. This ensures that if AD is down, you have a backup user you can log in with. A single repository model would use AD only and thus lock you out. A Federated repository allows you to connect to multiple LDAPs and as well as the built in stand alone repository.
As far as Linux goes, that is the gold standard in my book. When you install it, you also want to be sure to setup a systemd unit file so it starts/stop with the operating system.
Now, if you are referring to the operating system user that WAS runs under, then it should be a separate account for optimal security. If your operating system security connects to LDAP, then consult with your AD administrator so you setup a redundant connection. In this case, I would echo Nic3500's concern and ensure the operating system account is local as well.
For our FTP server, my company has installed FileZilla Server version 0.9.41 beta. The server is working well and we're pleased with it. My question involves account management - FileZilla Server includes an easy-to-use UI for managing user accounts, but I would prefer to handle user accounts with the rest of our customer info, like logins for the company website, notes of the last support issue, and so on. I don't see a way to configure FileZilla Server to accept a different account manager. Is there a plugin architecture that I can code against, or better, modules that I can install that would give me the flexibility I'm looking for? Ideally, I'd be able to configure FileZilla Server with a SQL connection string and CRUD queries, and then manage the account store myself.
There is a XML file called "FileZilla Server.xml" in your program directory. In this file you can edit all relevant options regarding settings and user management of the server.
Don't forget to reload the config with "/reload-config" afterwards.
what is the requirments to run my own web server, if i bought for instance Dell PowerEdge T110 II compact tower server, what is the requirments and what do i need to host my own web application on my server?
Is this something your planning to use for your own web app? If so I would definitely recommend not going this route and instead using a service like RackSpace or GoDaddy. Especially if you're doing this out of your home as you probably would be paying a small fortune in extra bandwidth usage.
Also, what are you developing the web app in? If PHP then you'll need a LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) server. If you're doing a .net application using Microsoft's Visual Web Developer then you would need a Windows Server.
I hope this helps you.
I am working with a team of 5 developers at a small company. There are 3 who work here and 2 work remotely. Currently, we are using Assembla with Trac for source control. We are working on a ASP.NET MVC web site. We are not hosting our production environment right now. I am setting up a BuildServer with Teamcity!! I have it working right now on my locally on my laptop. Should we host our own buildserver or pay some else?
TeamCity is pretty good for small shops such as yours. Hosting your own really shouldn't be bad in terms of setup and cost. As long as your remote colleagues can access it without issue and it fulfills your requirements, go for it.
I'd recommend hosting it closer to your version control server so that it can obtain the sources and perform builds faster. If you host your own version control server, either install TeamCity on the same machine (if the hardware allows it) or put it in the same network. You will also need to install build agent(s) somewhere and a database server (as the internal database may lack the performance and reliability). In a small shop a standalone server would handle all of it (TeamCity Server + Build Agent + MySQL database). In a long term buying a server and hosting it by yourself would be much cheaper than paying some hosting provider each month for a virtual or dedicated server with limited resources. It would also simplify upgrading if it becomes necessary.
TeamCity server by itself is a web application hosted on the Tomcat server. It's accessed via the web interface from the browser. If you have an external IP address on the server, just configure the Tomcat to listen on that address and TeamCity will become accessible from all over the world (don't forget to configure the security).
