For developers: PHP, SFTP, databases and staging

What there is

PHP 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4

Chosen per site under Developers › PHP. With OPcache. The panel warns if the change may break old plugins and lets you go back.
Editable PHP settings

memory_limit, upload_max_filesize, max_execution_time and friends, per site, with the plan's ceiling in view.
PHP extensions

The list of extensions each version ships with on the server, visible in the panel before switching.
MariaDB

Databases per site, users with read, write or full profiles, and remote access you open from the panel when you need it.
SFTP and file manager

Your own SFTP users per site (jailed with CageFS) and a file manager in the browser.
Staging copy

Duplicate of the site with its database. Change, test and publish; or throw it away.
Scheduled tasks

Commands that run on their own at the time you set, per site, from the panel.
OpenLiteSpeed with cache

Web server compatible with Apache rules (.htaccess). Page cache per vhost, LiteSpeed Cache in WordPress.
Restorable backups

Daily, fifteen days, off the server. Restore the whole site or individual files.
WordPress tools

Repair the database, deactivate plugins, reset permissions, change the admin password: from the panel, no ticket.
DNS and Cloudflare

DNS editor, templates (Google Workspace, Vercel), and Cloudflare with proxy, firewall and country/IP blocking.
Status and statistics

Included monitoring for each site (Zygore Pulse) in your panel, and visitor statistics without bots.

What there isn't

So you don't find out after paying.

Root access
On hosting, semi-dedicated and managed VPS, we manage the server. Root only on dedicated servers.
Node.js, Python, Ruby as a web runtime
The hosting is PHP. For another runtime, a dedicated server.
Git on the server or push-to-deploy
You upload via SFTP or the file manager. You can deploy from your CI over SFTP.
Containers or your own services
No Docker, no private Redis, no queues. If you need that, it's a dedicated server.
Email on the website's server
On purpose. Email with your domain is a separate product, per mailbox.

Frequently asked questions

Can I host Laravel, Symfony or another PHP application?

Yes: PHP 8.x, MariaDB, editable PHP settings, scheduled tasks and Apache-compatible rewrite rules. No Composer on the server: upload a resolved vendor/ via SFTP. See Host an application.

Is there a real staging environment?

The staging copy is a real duplicate of the site with its database, on its own URL. Publishing the copy replaces the site, with a prior backup.

How do I deploy from CI?

Over SFTP with a site-specific user. No Git on the server.

Can I connect to MariaDB from my machine?

Yes: open remote access for that database from the panel and connect with its user. Closed by default.

Redis, Memcached, queues?

Not on managed hosting. On a dedicated server, whatever you install.
