Setting Up GitLab

As discussed in the previous chapter, GitLab can be used both as a self-managed or as a SaaS offering through GitLab.com. We also discussed the reasons for and against both methods regarding getting started with GitLab. We'll start this chapter by running through the requirements of GitLab, and in particular what you need in terms of hardware and software to run your own installation.

O'Grady

Adam O'Grady hails from the remote Perth, Western Australia, and can usually be found on Twitter at @adamjogrady or in meatspace wrangling with code. His first taste of programming came from building games into graphics calculators at high school, and quickly developed into a passion. A few years later, while doing social media marketing for an ISP, his first big break arrived; building custom applications to monitor and respond to social feeds. After that, he spent a few years working for the government building systems that used satellite and geographic data to spot and predict bushfires, and now you can find him leading a small team of engineering mavens at a local health start-up.
