For the first time (thanks to Bitnami) I am abble to ran a collaborative app from my laptop MaBook Air) ; by the way, I appreciate the look and feel of SuiteCRM.
As I believe it (tell me if I am wrong) contents created in SuiteCRM are located on my laptop ; so that in case it grows over my PC capacity, what option among these below are the most suitable ?
• Transfering SuiteCRM to a remote VPS with bigger capacity
• Using a S3 server to create objetcs for cloud storage
• Making regular backup of whole contents in an external HD
You can have an online hosting that doesn’t need to be a VPS (although a VPS has some nice advantages if you can afford it).
Note that using a Bitnami install could limit (or complicate) your ability to migrate the site later. A simple straight-forward Ubuntu install would probably be the most standard.
S3-style cloud storage is possible, but I wouldn’t say SuiteCRM is ready for it out-of-the-box. I don’t know much about this, though - you can search for some Forums threads discussing it.
Having an external disk with backups is always a good fail-safe - but a backup is not a live server, so it’s covering different needs than the other options.
