Introduction

This document is part of the internal documentation for Hannemyr Nye Medier AS. Its main audience is staff helping clients to build Drupal websites. It is not read-protetected by choice. We are a transparent company and also want our clients and others to have public access to this information.

Servers

To build Drupal 8 or Drupal 9 websites, you should set up a separate staging server and a production server.

The staging server needs to run composer and requires at least 4 GB of memory. We recommend setting this on a Droplet on our preferred hosting company: DigitalOcean.

See alsoYou may also set up a local server as your staging server. To learn how to do this, see the Drupal.org community documentation: Local server setup about setting up a local server, for instance based on XAMPP or MAMP.

The production website can not be on a local server. We recommend using a droplet provided by DigitalOcean for this as well.
