I intend to deploy an online game and I didn't see many resources/references concerning this subject. It is something I would like to execute myself.
There are individual topics that I could read up on from: Unix/Server Administration, Network Security, SSL, CDNs (mostly the vendors own documentation), Load Balancing, Version Control, Databases/Replication, Metrics, Mailing, Payments, Streaming, Optimization, Websites, Virtual Machines, Backup, Handling Cookies/Sessions.
But no source that integrates them all. I understand there is a lot to know, but anything that could provide me with a quick framework to work from would be appreciative.
If not one book/blog/tutorial to rule them all, I would even be grateful for specific recommendations for any of the topics stated above (or others that I might be missing?) as that would save me time from pursuing false leads.
Tips or advice are welcome as well.
