Easy Way to Install Faster and Secure WordPress on Ubuntu
To install WordPress on an Ubuntu server many steps must be done. Starting from installing the web server, PHP engine, database, and WordPress itself. To be more secure we need to install SSL for example SSL from Let’s Encrypt. Meanwhile, to speed up WordPress access speed we add a cache like Redis cache. Finally install a monitoring system to monitor server performance.
All the steps to install and configure WordPress certainly takes quite a long time. Not to mention if something goes wrong in the configuration. To simplify and speed up the installation and deployment of WordPress we can use the DevOps tool for WordPress called WordOps.
