Currently, an SRE at Aurora.

I have been at large companies and small ones. I have seen amazing growth (at LinkedIn and NetApp) and a couple completely fall apart. I am passionate about how SRE (and DevOps, in general) can change how online software is developed and managed.

What is an SRE and how does it relate to DevOps?

The SRE role is common in large enterprises, but smaller businesses need it, too.

Getting started with Pelican: A Python-based static site generator

If you are asking about just a web server (without discussing any kind of blogging software), then I use nginx. That is what all of my recent companies have used, so that is what I am most familiar with.

If you are looking for something Python-specific, then I use Flask. It's pretty lightweight. But, it's pretty minimal, which works for me. (FTR; one company I worked for a year or so ago was pretty heavily invested in Django. It worked well and had lots of bells and whistles. But, when I tried it for personal stuff, it was a bit much to bite off. Flask has much less "built in", but it was easy to get up and running.)

Hope that helps.
