Hi,
I bought a DS213J for some basic file sharing, and now realise I've got a little webserver and loads of functionality which is all a pleasant surprise. I'm now contemplating that I might use the web server and install something useful and or fun.
I know this is a fairly open question, but please can anyone summarise, aside performance, what are the limitations of this little web server compared to say either a traditional hosted web server or a VPS?
I'm thinking perhaps I might install some PHP/MySQL apps, and am interested to know what types of systems might work/ not work? And I'm assuming that because it's some kind of Synology proprietary build/setup, it may not support certain things.
It would be helpful to know it's technical boundaries when I consider what I could use it for.
Thank you
