- Migrated from a Digital Ocean VPS (Ubuntu 16.04) to a Hetzner VPS running FreeBSD for better performance and lower cost.
- Used FreeBSD Jails with Bastille for containerization, isolating each site in its own jail for security and management.
- Implemented Caddy as a reverse proxy server for automatic SSL certificate handling, improving ease of maintenance.
- Conducted benchmarks comparing old and new servers, showing significant performance improvements with the new setup.
- Configured networking with PF firewall and virtual interfaces to route traffic between jails and the external world.
