@Ambarishrh said in Project Management solution:
If i understood this correctly, does it mean that you basically looking for a file sharing platform with a messaging option attached to it?
And if thats what you need, check Slack or self hosted solutions like Mattermost, rocket chat.
ML already have posts about mattermost setup https://www.mangolassi.it/topic/8827/installing-mattermost-on-centos-7
If i understood this correctly, does it mean that you basically looking for a file sharing platform with a messaging option attached to it?
Finally, i was able to complete this! 
Using Below services from Amazon:
EC2- Compute instances: Used Amazon AMI, installed Apache, PHP and checked out drupal core files, converted to an image.
RDS- MariaDB dedicated instance
Autoscaling Group: Launch config & Auto Scaling Group, using the custom image created from EC2
ELB: Frontend load balancer for web servers
Code Deploy: To deploy the update code files to the web servers. Code deploy takes care of deploying the code to all new servers as it boot us on the autoscale group. (It starts from our internal gitlab server, once all files are committed, we will zip that solution and a gitlab runner will initiate a docker instance which then uses aws cli to push this zip file to S3, code deploy picks it up from there and deploy to the selected auto scale group)
Set threshold alarms: start with 1 server, when CPU reaches 80% and stays for a minute, boot up another instance. When CPU goes down for around 2 minutes, it will terminate 1 instance, to keep the minimal back to 1.
Testing: Using the Linux command stress.

I will soon be writing a blog post on this, but just wanted to update all here
What are the main features you are looking for? Do you want self hosted, any specific budget for this? How many users are you planning to support?
We've evaluated tons of PM toolset for ours use after we decided to stop the development process of our own in house product. Budget was also an issue and now using self hosted ActiveCollab. Used by multiple offices, vendors, clients etc.
https://activecollab.com/
A recent update introduced add-on for Google drive, Dropbox etc to use files from there to be shared in the PM tool.
No, never had a postgresql requirement but thought it might be useful for someone here
@scottalanmiller said in Microsoft Teams announced:
They have multiple options for this already. This is getting crazy. Teams, Skype for Business and Yammer all doing the same things.
Yammer is a discussion platform with very limited functionality.
From the initial use of teams it's is close to O365 groups but with more features. Good to see that it can integrate with external connectors. The channels reminds me of slack and they probably added the features of groups to it. All on sharepoint in the background.
I guess if team picks up pace it could replace yammer ,Skype for business and may be groups too. May be its the first sign of MS abandoning yammer that they moved their yammer network to a new site outside yammer recently.
I am still curious to know how they are planning to plug wunderlist in this!
Teams, a clear slack alternative, and if this works, its a good alternative for Skype for business, when you have more things available on Team, why use Skype for business!
Not sure if its a good thing or bad, looks like MS is bringing all at the same time!
Now an IFTT alternative!
It has desktop and mobile apps.
Almost the same as Groups features, conversations, files, notes, and options to add office apps
Start video chat/schedule meeting from the app
Includes screen sharing
Microsoft Teams is available in preview to eligible Office 365 commercial customers beginning November 2, 2016

@marcinozga Dont have the exact statistics, which is why i want to setup an autoscaling solution to make sure that the site doesnt go down. After the campaign is over, i can move back to the regular hosting. I saw different options to use AWS with autoscaling but still confused on what is the best approach to use the site solution added to new instances. There are several ways mentioned, create a custom AMI with all installed and configured and use that for auto scaling, use AWS code deploy etc. Still checking out options and testing.
Is it still the case, i just browsed the site http://www.fle.com and looks like all pages are working fine!
Azure might be expensive (I need to take some time to actually compare the pricing) but i am interested to know why you consider Azure as unreliable. Would be great if you can give some more insights which makes you end up in the conclusion that Azure is not a great choice.
I read something here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12626237
Mainly:
AWS documentation is excellent, Azure docs are weird and inconsistent and for some bits nonexistent.
Azure API's are inconsistent and weird, but once you figure out they work relatively well. But the lack of documentation compounds confusion.
Azure has a lot of very weird limitations that don't make any sense:
-- Default Centos images are 30GB osDisk and you can't resize them, you have to create your own images if you do want to.
-- You can have SSD's in 128/512/1024GB sizes and you pay for them in full, Spinning disks are billed per actual usage.
-- You have to store your osDisk image in the same storage account as your machine you are running (so you have to pay for your image the full SSD monthly price)
-- You have a VMSS (=Auto Scaling Group) and have a Load Balancer in front of it, your microservice connections fail if the load balancer routes the connection back to the same VM ... you now have to have another VMSS just for load balancing/service discovery.
Their services labelled Beta are really more like Alpha quality.
On the plus side, their ARM templates are richer and nicer to use than CloudFormation, however the lack of documentation for them kills all the advantages.
When you jump all the hoops and get past the issues, the things work relatively well.
Wondering why Azure is not an option!
Interesting to see that this page is already indexed on google
For learning Azure and such i guess one of the best resources now available is from CloudAcademy, https://cloudacademy.com/library/?providers=Azure
They are more concentrated on Azure, AWS and such.
