Hi Digital Ocean has a one click install for Lamp, that installs Ubuntu 14.04 along with php / mysql / apache.
I have not played to much with optimizing all the settings, but there will be a few things you will have to tweak in apache to get everything running correctly. I imagine there will be a bit you can tweak on mysql aswell - depending on what you will be running. You will also have to handle hardening the server along with setting a firewall. Think I am still running 6.7, I tried upgrading it awhile ago and ran into a few problems (it was either session or post / get variables - cant remember) I would suggest trying the latest version, if there are any problems it takes only a moment to down grade.
