The service of collective processing RAW'OK

Processing and photo retouching now sometimes no less important than the shooting. Professionals and Amateurs often pictures working with RAW format, which is a digital negative. But processing photos requires experience and knowledge.
I came up with the idea to create a site where Amateurs and professionals could be trained in handling other people's photos, put your RAW key on the mercy of the community, which is useful for self-study.
If you want to know how it was done and what came out of it, welcome to under the cat.

How is it done


The site was written from scratch in exactly one week.
(I personally do not understand when projects of this level of name-calling startup, are looking for investors, team, etc.)
Under the hood python framework web.py I like its simplicity and the absence of congestion, this is especially true for small projects. In the process of creation, are faced with several problems:
RAW files occupy a decent place, but I want to give people the opportunity to put them to download for further processing. The first hundred of these files and place on the VDS would come to an end. The solution was obvious — to store content in the cloud (the choice fell on selectel.ru who repeatedly described himself on habré).
The first day heavy the files are on the hosting, and then once a day it comes to the script and moves to the cloud. Not to mess around with changing the links, was set up regular forwarding the apache in the absence of the requested file.
The second problem is the preview of RAW files. Users have to see what the downloadable RAW'key. The problem was solved with the utility dcraw. This utility knows how to pull the sewn raw preview and removes the server from the load for a full-fledged RAW developer.

What happened.

Monitoring PostgreSQL + php-fpm + nginx + disk using Zabbix

a Lot of information in the network according to Zabbix, and a lot of bespoke templates, I want to introduce to the audience his modification. Zabbix is a very convenient and flexible monitoring tool. Want a hundred monitor, I want a thousand stations, and do not want to — watch a single server, take the cream in all sections. I would not mind to give to github, if anyone collects similar. It so happened that we decided to put on the hosting database wrapper php-fpm+nginx. As the database is postgres. Thoughts to collect data on the machine was before the purchase of hosting is needed, this is useful! Magic kick up the backside to the implementation of the system gave the brakes a hard drive on our VDS stations at the beginning of the script every minute, put the time and measured by the speed in the file, and then build graphs in Excel to compare to as it was/became, take quantitative statistics. And this is just one option! And suddenly the fault is not VDS, and our a

So any of the marks are for the test, insert the end of the line (if your line is of the same kind as just above).
