Amazon’s shiny new managed VPC NAT Gateway on AWS (unveiled today) can be translated into plain English as NAT (Network address Translation) as a service. You might wonder who is going to need it if a VPC was just fine as of yesterday.

Installing PHP on the Red Hat family—Fedora, RHEL, CentOS 7—is a must for cyber security and it’s not rocket science. With a few easy steps, you too can bring your PHP based web applications to the next level.
The setup of the LEMP stack (NGINX, MariaDB or MySQL, and PHP) has many caveats. They can impact both performance and security.
