Tips for managing many servers

Use descriptive names: Instead of “server-1,” try “prod-web-01” or “staging-api-server.” Your team will thank you.

Monitor proactively: Set up alert rules to get notified when servers have issues. Don’t wait for users to report problems.

Regular maintenance: Keep your servers updated. Use the web terminal to run updates across multiple servers quickly.
