Hosting

Domain

• Select a Provider
• Ideal Domain: theheartlands.us
• Google is discontinuing their domain registrar, and I don't trust that company to maintain anything anymore.

Hosting

• Select Provider
  • Digital ocean has excellent documentation
• Must be Linux Based capable of holding docker containers
• OS Should be capable of snapshots and rolling back.
• Backups should be automated and considered in storage requirements.

Considerations

How much hosting resources will this require?

Should it all be in one place? Gaming resources could be found cheaper, or self hosted! Core infra should definitely be on a professional host (i.e. chat, social media)
