A song of DevOps and TYPO3 - Developing a platform to host TYPO3
summary
A hosting platform called proServer runs on bare metal with FreeBSD jails, ZFS storage and a NAT64 gateway so jails are IPv6-only while IPv4 is translated; system binaries are mounted read‑only from versioned blueprints and updates are done by swapping blueprints. Configuration and lifecycle are managed as infrastructure as code with Ansible idempotent playbooks, nightly ZFS snapshots enable quick rollbacks, and a self‑service UI (REST API planned) lets customers create/copy/delete servers. It hosts large TYPO3 sites (example: notebookcheck.com), avoids Docker/Kubernetes for persistence and security, and is operational and production‑stable.
