From Mateusz Podraza @mateuszpodraza via Twitter:
Hello,
I'm writing to ask for some directions regarding cloud-based technology.
We need to restore backups of users' websites (e.g. Joomla/WP) in a sandboxed environment and then perform some testing on it (preferably using PHPBrowser), after which the backups will be wiped.
Is there an easy way of setting up multiple instances of LAMP stacks as required here? Should we dynamically spin up a machine for every process of this backup, restoring and testing? That sounds resource-intensive, but I am not knowledgeable enough to come up with a better answer.
I am mostly concerned about the ability to spawn a lot of relatively short-lived "replicas" of said stack, not just installing the packages. Do you think there are some resources that could help there?
Thanks for the reply!
Thanks,
