$8-15 AUD / hour

I have a CentOS VPS which I would like to move to a VM. The VPS is running CentOS 6.5 and has PostgreSQL, and a small web application installed using Glassfish/Tomcat. Cpanel is also installed but not required. The VPS is showing as using around 14GB of space, which is a lot higher than I expect as there isn't a lot on the VPS, so there may be ways of reducing the size. The VM should be created in VirtualBox and available for me to download i.e. from your ftp or cloud web storage etc.

Hello, I'll be happy to move your CentOS VPS to a VirtualBox VM that you can download from my online storage.. I will also investigate the unexpected excessive disk space usage issue - as you're probably aware, many applications create huge log files and this might be the cause. No matter what it is, I'll investigate and address this issue too. Kindly review my profile and if you find me suitable for the job, please message me here for further discussion. With best regards, Richa Varma BE(IT), MBA(Marketing) Freelancing Web Dev/Tech WAHM

Currently working as SysAdmin in McDonald's corporation, the migration task doesn't pose a problem at all. I have already worked on a big (20+ servers) and complex (mesh topology) migration from Verizon data centers to Amazon Web Services (AWS). Talking about some similarities in environment I migrated and yours: - You're using CentOS; I used RHEL 6 - You're using Tomcat; I used JBoss 6 and 6.2 in a complete clustered environment - You don't require CPanel; I did most of the stuff over terminal. - Size reduction would depend upon your priorities. We'd discuss it. I have extensive experience in working with/configuring Industry standard DevOp tools like: Nagios, Jenkins/Hudons, SVN, WebServers, Middlewares, Maven, Scripting, Python, Graphite etc., and some experience with Chef too. Maybe I could make your environment more stable and scalable.
