0002738: (Servers and Apps) Discontinue all Linux servers in Valley S and migrate applications

Requirements and Solutions

Intro

Number of factors related to the elimination or scaling down server farm:

• President's strategic direction of "moving all NY servers into cloud" due to:
  • possibility of flood
  • lack of IT resources in house to support servers
• TBD

Disadvantages of elimination of servers:

• hire cost of hosting (if we need extra servers at hosting provider)

Potential compromise would be to leave one server in NY with some services/applications that:

• could be easily recovered on non NY server in case of flood or lack of support
• require no support from NY staff

Another option would be to have one Linux server that would run applications related to both CT2 development / production and to NY office internal IT needs (Squid, what else?)

See detailed description of current servers/apps here: Jaguar Servers Systems Applications
