Tarantool 101: 10 Steps for Beginners, the Chronically Busy, or the Impatient

The in-memory powerhouse Tarantool supports some of the largest and most sophisticated enterprises in the world. But every developer using it had to sit down one day and answer the simple question, “How do I actually get this thing running?” This guide covers that step, i.e. the absolute first one: where to download Tarantool, how to start it up, and a little bit of what you can do with it.

I have based the guide on a Digital Ocean Ubuntu droplet for consistency across platforms, but you could use another cloud service or even a local installation with some tweaks. Also, cutting and pasting doesn’t necessarily encourage learning, but I wanted to point out that if you are in a rush, you could just cut and paste your way to a basic Tarantool HTTP server instance in less than 10 minutes.
