Hi everybody , I'm a newbie, I don't know if it's the right place to put this question, but I tried to looking for a specific field and I didn't find it. I'm doing a thesis for my university, and I have been looking for information on cloud computing. For my introduction I need to find what was the job of the developers and system engineers/administrators before the advent of cloud computing. For example:
write code to create your web-app
setup a Apache web server
setup a sequel database, and connect it with the Apache web server
some way to push out new versions of your code when you update your app
some way to monitoring your app so you can see if it's down, see how much traffic you're getting
...
I would like to have all these information in more detail! I need to find all the steps to bring out a web-app from scratch without the cloud computing. Thanks for your help.
