| − | The [[CNM Next Server]] (previously known as [[CNM Lab Server]]; hereinafter, the ''Server'') is a compute server that is used for learning and testing. While being a part of [[CNM Servers]], the ''Server'' utilizes one [[DigitalOcean]] droplet, which is located at the [http://167.71.244.79 167.71.244.79] [[IP address]], and shall support all the applications that are installed at the [[CNM Fellow Server]]. In other words, the ''Server'' can be described as a learning and testing variant of the [[CNM Fellow Server]].
