The apt package manager saves a list of packages so you don't have to download it every time. When a Linux installation reaches a certain age the apt cache can take up several tens of gigabytes. APT does not clean the cache automatically, so it may contain obsolete packages in...
I recently encountered a server where the log files were taking up too much space. The "daemon.log" was over 3 GB and the syslog is over 2 GB. Those sizes are not normal !!! If you are in a similar situation, you should look at the files (both) to see...
I have done tests with "New Relic", and the truth is that they are expensive but it is worth having statistics of this type. Right now I have some servers that use NewRelic, and others that use Datadog. Both are very good services, they are different, but they are used...
It's a note for my future self, that every time I need it I have to look it up on Google. This way I already have it more handy and easy to find. .tar.gz files: Compress: tar -czvf packaged.tar.gz /folder/to/package/ Unzip: tar -xzvf archive.tar.gz .tar files: Pack: tar -cvf package.tar...

In all my servers (Linux) I have rs ync installed. Rsync allows to copy files, or rather synchronize them, between different servers. What makes it stand out is that it does it incrementally, fast and in a very simple way. This means that it only sends the files that have...
Those who know me know that I'm quite a tech geek and also a bit obsessed lately with productivity. I've been working with at least two monitors for years now. I firmly believe that the more things you can have in view, the less time you waste switching between viewing...
In some cases, it is necessary to empty a file without deleting it.A typical case is to have a log file on the server, which has grown excessively and occupies a lot of disk space. To empty the syslog file it can be done as follows: sudo truncate -s 0...
A command that I use a lot to see the space occupied by files and directories is the "du" command.By setting some parameters it is very convenient to use: du -sm * | sort -nr | head -5 Head -5 is to return only the first 5 results, you can...
