title: Building Real Time Applications On VPS
body: <p>I want to build a real time application "Chat Application for instance"
  I already tried this tutorial <a href="http://www.phpbuilder.com/articles/application-architecture/optimization/creating-real-time-applications-with-php-and-websockets.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.phpbuilder.com/articles/application-architecture/optimization/creating-real-time-applications-with-php-and-websockets.html</a>  </p>
  
  <p>And it works fine on my windows 7 
  But the issue now is i want to use it on vps.
  I have root access to vps 
  but i don't know how to make the application always be running.</p>
  
  <p>Note : I have putty for SSH Connection </p>
  
  <p>Second questions is : what is the best for building that kind of applications.
  I use PHP as my master programming language , so is it enough to build those applications or i should use something like NodeJS instead "zero knowledge at the moment"</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
