Server Admin Meetup: DHIS2 Architecture Deep Dive – Core Components & Upgrade Considerations

Hello everyone,

Thursday is here! We’ll be talking conceptually about the DHIS2 server architecture — the different components needed to get DHIS2 running, why they are needed, upgrade considerations, how the components fit together, and some of the key architecture decisions.

We’ll cover:

  • Operating System
  • Tomcat
    • Java
  • Proxy
    • NGINX
  • Database
  • Monitoring
