Hello
I am a qualified archivist and, outside my day job in a corporate archive, I am now looking after the archive of my rowing club
As it's a volunteer project, I'm working entirely on my own with no IT support.
A couple of years ago I got a site up and running with AtoM 2.4 on a rented VPS (
www.thamesrcarchive.co.uk). Although I've got a long way by following the excellent instructions in the AtoM documentation, I feel that I need to improve my confidence working with Linux in order to get some better backup arrangements in place and then to upgrade to AtoM 2.6
I have started working my way through some Udemy online courses on the Linux command line, Ubuntu server basics, and securing an Ubuntu VPS.
I am wondering, though, whether it be worth also taking courses on any of the software that underlies AtoM. Udemy offers courses (primarily aimed at developers, I think) on:
NGINX
MySQL
ElasticSearch
PHP
Symfony
Would it be worth my while taking any of these? Or anything else?
Any suggestions welcomed!
