Before we begin, make sure you have the following things ready:
- We need a machine with at least 4 GB of RAM (the more the better) and a Multi-core processor.
- Depending on how you manage the infrastructure in your team, the machine could be an instance on a cloud platform (such as AWS, DigitalOcean, or any other cloud platform), a bare metal machine, or it could be a VM (on VMware vSphere or any other server virtualization software).
- The machines should have Ubuntu 16.04 or greater installed on it.
- Check for admin privileges; the installation might ask for an admin username and password.
