I have used shared hosting all my life. But the transition to a virtual server (VPS) is brewing. The goal is to deploy Python web services. Please suggest articles to delve into the topic. Interested in the technical part. The fact is that for me, as I am accustomed to all sorts of cPanel and DirectAdmin, it is rather difficult to even imagine how VPS is used. Help me go deeper.

You will have to suffer with the console only once, when installing ISPManager or another panel, the installer will install all the servers and the necessary daemons, and then, everything is as you are used to - a convenient web interface.
And it's very easy to install the panel, it's enough to wget one script and run it, i.e. you only need to drive three commands) I don’t know how it is with other panels ...

Well, read here, presumably not a little, so an easier option is to order the necessary settings when buying a server. There your admins will set up and everything your heart desires. The price tag for setting up is negligible. Get access and work.

Much can be done with ready-made scripts.

There is a wonderful thing for setting up servers and vps - Webmin . And besides OpenSource.
It will greatly simplify the configuration, even if used for a one-time config.

Panels on VPS also work.
My advice is to order the installation and setup of VPS and panels. Enable daily backup. And start working with it through the panels. And then read on the administration of unixes and when you need to look at something, we do the usual movements in the panels and look at the configs. If you want to try something meaningful, we try it, if we roll back the VPS to yesterday's backup.
In principle, after a couple of months of active stirring, you can get a level-up to an average admin.

And you can also practice on nesting dolls - put some kind of virtual machine and Ubuntu (or another distribution kit) and see what and how it is configured there.

I recommend adjusting the memory usage.
It seems to be called the memory stack.
Significantly save resources.
