Setup Order

When setting up a new environment from scratch, follow this order:

1. Bastion - SSH gateway (setup first for secure access)
2. NFS - Shared storage (needed by webservers)
3. MongoDB - Database (needed by app)
4. RabbitMQ - Message queue (needed by consumers and websockets)

Firewall Configuration

All servers require proper firewall rules. Each guide includes specific firewall configuration requirements. Key principles:

• SSH access only via Bastion server
• Services only accessible from required servers (use tags when possible)
• Outbound traffic restricted to necessary services

Common Requirements

Most servers require: - Ubuntu 24.04 LTS - SSH key authentication - User accounts for team members - Proper firewall rules - DeployHQ access (for application servers)
