pawelsawicz Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Heya. Here https://github.com/pawelsawicz/vagrant-dontstarve I've created vagrant configs (for now only for a Azure) basically it allows you to spin up VM without any trouble of configuration of OS. As I said now it works only with Microsoft Azure, but in next day I will add next providers such a local VirtaulBox or VMWare. (All you need to do is vagrant up) If you have any questions let me know, documentation at github can be a little bit uncompleted will try to make it better in a few day. Cheers,Pawel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawelsawicz Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Heya again, As I promised, I have added new provider for vagrant-dontstarve, which is VirtualBox https://github.com/pawelsawicz/vagrant-dontstarve#virtualbox-localy. What does it mean ? It means that by having only virtualbox (https://www.virtualbox.org/) and vagrant (https://www.virtualbox.org/) on your machine you can spin up ubuntu VM on your PC with DST Server by one command "vagrant up --provider=virtualbox" no extra action needed! If you have any questions let me know. Pawel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer MarkL Posted July 8, 2015 Developer Share Posted July 8, 2015 Awesome work! I had actually thought about testing out Azure for our own servers- but was too lazy to setup a new image Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pawelsawicz Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 If you have any questions, feedback or requests about this let me know I am thinking about next provider, AWS (at my work we do have whole infra. on AWS and it works quite good).

pawelsawicz Posted July 14, 2015 Author Share Posted July 14, 2015 Awesome work! I had actually thought about testing out Azure for our own servers- but was too lazy to setup a new image Azure and AWS are quite expensive. Basically instead of having one server per VM you could try to ship it as a containers by using https://www.docker.com/. So it means that you could have one big powerful VM with OS and inside of this a thousands of containers with servers. https://www.docker.com/whatisdocker Maybe in a few days I will prepare something based on Docker and DST.

Developer MarkL Posted July 15, 2015 Developer Share Posted July 15, 2015 We use AWS for our Rhymes With Play and development servers and DigitalOcean for our general servers. We are running a single instance per VM. This technology choice doesn't scale very well, so these servers are mostly for testing and experimenting. A service like Docker might help us create on demand servers- which have many advantages. An example of this would be how Valve hosts all CS:GO competitive servers, this way they can ensure the server is not running any modifications or cheats.

pawelsawicz Posted July 15, 2015 Author Share Posted July 15, 2015 Yeah, I really like Immutable Servers concept, where everything is disposable are can be recreated within few minutes. http://martinfowler.com/bliki/ImmutableServer.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
