Nasib Masjid Apung Palu Setelah Terpapar Tsunami

TEMPO.CO, Palu - Masjid Apung Palu, Arkam Babu Rahman, ikut terimbas gempa dan tsunami saat bencana tersebut melanda Sulawesi Tengah pada 28 September 2018. Rumah ibadah yang juga menjadi ikon pariwisata kota tersebut hilang kekhasannya. Tiang penopangnya roboh hingga masjid itu tak lagi mengapung di atas laut.
Pantauan Tempo yang berkunjung ke masjid Apung Palu pada Minggu, 14 Oktober lalu, terlihat masjid yang membelakangi Pantai Talise itu masih utuh strukturnya. Namun, ruang-ruang dalam bangunan itu telah tergenang air laut. Gelombang yang pasang akan masuk melalui pintu belakang dan tembus sampai pintu depan.
“Blaar….” Suara ombak menggelegar saat menghantam dinding masjid Apung Palu. Air mengucur deras seperti pancuran air saat keluar dari sela-sela dinding jendela yang telah hilang kacanya.
Tampak depan, masjid ini masih berdiri. Namun, bangunannya miring ke kiri. Sedangkan kubahnya masih utuh dan pengeras suara azannya masih terpasang rapi, tanpa cacat.
Di tengah gerimis Kota Palu Minggu sore itu, Idha Badra, 43 tahun, berdiri diam memandang masjid itu. Pandangannya mengawang. “Saya cuma mau membandingkan keadaan masjid ini dulu dan sekarang,” katanya saat ditemui Tempo di Pantai Talise pada Minggu sore.

Idha datang dari Medan, Sumatera Utara. Ia sengaja ke Palu untuk memberi bantuan kepada warga Petobo sekaligus menyaksikan keadaan Palu terkini.
Idha memiliki kenangan khusus dengan kota itu. Ia mengaku kerap ke Palu untuk urusan pekerjaan. Salah satu tempat yang paling membuatnya terkesan adalah Masjid Apung.
Menurut dia, masjid ini adalah tempat meneduh dan menyejukkan pikiran. Saat sembahyang di dalam bangunan itu, ada ketenangan yang didapatkan dari suara ombak, yang kerap bersahut-sahutan dengan darasan doa.
Idha bukan satu-satunya orang yang ingin mengenang kondisi Masjid Apung. Nunung, 32 tahun, juga mengaku demikian. Ia datang dari Parigi Moutong untuk melihat keadaan rumah ibadah itu. Dia mengatakan masjid tersebut merupakan tempat favoritnya untuk menyore ketika menyambangi Kota Palu. Nunung berharap masjid ini tak hilang, dan bisa dirawat lagi menjadi monumen pengingat.
Sore itu, baik Nunung maupun Idha, sama-sama tak mau kehilangan memori tentang Masjid Apung. Keduanya lantas menyempatkan berfoto di depan masjid untuk kenang-kenangan.
Masjid Apung Palu yang memiliki luas 121 meter persegi itu diresmikan pada 2011 lalu. Letaknya tepat menghadap di muka Teluk Palu di Pantai Talise. Masjid ini menjadi ikon Kota Palu. Saat malam hari, kubahnya bercahaya 7 warna.

Rails VPS Hosting comes in many forms.
The cheapest is to use the "cloud" VPS providers which currently include the likes of DigitalOcean, Amazon EC2, Hetzner, Vultr and several others.
These providers are able to offer infrastructure-independent services for as little as $5/mo (Vultr even experimented at $2.50/mo until they ran out of capacity).
The point is they are very inexpensive and provide an effective way to run Ruby on Rails based applications on infrastructure which you both own and can scale without having to buy expensive packages etc.
It works well, but there is one major downside - management. It's very difficult to set up the servers and then to keep them running (without some sort of underlying management system). This is a problem which has attempted to have been solved by the likes of Chef/Puppet and Docket, but generally to no avail.
The good news is that it's ALL software - almost every aspect of the "web" server stack is software-driven. The difficulty lies in getting all the software to work together, which of course is difficult and time-consuming.
This is a rundown of the software you require to get a web server online:
Operating System
Libraries / Packages
Programming Language Interpreters (Ruby/PHP/etc)
Web Server Software
Application Server Software
GIT Repos
The "GIT" repos thing basically means that you're able to push applications to the server, and they'll be able to run. The Web & Application server software packages are the equivalent of NGinx/Apache and the likes of Passenger.
Whilst most people don't really think about it, if you're running *any* sort of dynamic rendering mechanism for web servers (be it with PHP, NodeJS, Ruby, Python etc), you'll need to use an application server to get it running.
Because application servers are generally bundled with web server software, no one really cares / knows much about them. This is why "shared" hosting is such a popular option - its bundling with PHP is all that's required for the likes of WordPress, hence people are not really bothered about how it works in the back-end.
For Rails, the ability to manage the underlying dependencies, and the compatibility with the "Passenger" application server, are the two most paramount requirements to get the system running properly. This is what Rails VPS hosting is best for - allowing people to run their own web hosting infrastructure without any lock-in to specific software resources etc.
As mentioned, however, the problem with this is that you are responsible for all the server software, backups and any further integrations you may wish to apply. Unless you're using a service such as VPSDeploy, you'll end up having to manually account for everything in the system.
The only systems worth using in this capacity (for Rails) at the moment are HatchBox.io, Nanobox.io and VPSDeploy.com.
