Telling a developer "hire a sysadmin" might not be the answer he's looking for, but it's hardly hostile, disrespectful or unreasonable in response to a question that amounts to "what sysadmining do I need to do?" Of course, that's not exactly useful as an answer, hence it being said in the comments.

Dear Stackoverflow, What coding things do I need to do for my web servers? I run a start-up that can't afford to hire programmers, so I'm just looking for the bare essentials I need to do get my production webservers coded.

This was textbook Not Construcitve / NARQ. Impossibly broad, a topic you could write a book on (in addition to the books that already exist on the topic), and at least 6 questions in one question post to boot.
We have a FAQ, which the OP obviously didn't read We have a FAQ, which the OP obviously didn't read. It could possibly, maybe, with a lot of work be on-topic over at Unix and Linux, or even here, if there was a compelling reason to overlook the fact that the OP is not an Information Technology Professional, but at it heart, "what do I need to do to make my [Ubuntu] servers production-ready" is a book, not a good question for a Q&A site like ServerFault is supposed to be.
Serverfault is not a site to give 101-level Systems Administration advice to... well, users. That would be the unbearable part of my job, not anything I'm willing to do for free, off the clock. Again, this is supposed to a be a from IT pros, to IT pros site, so this kind of question simply doesn't belong.
