Cloudnet Managed Platform is a service suitable for all types of websites and applications running on Linux. The basis of the service is a virtual Linux server delivered to the customer fully installed and prepared to start running your website.
At the time of ordering, you tell us what services are needed for the application to work. If you are not sure about this, we are happy to interact with your web agency or developers to figure out what is needed.
Operating system
Cloudnet always deploy the latest long-term release of Ubuntu, and strives to upgrade previously deployed servers as quickly as possible while still being convenient for our customers.
Database
The standard Cloudnet database backend is MySQL, but we also support PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, Solr and Elastic Search should the need arise.
Support
You do not need to be a Linux expert to use the Cloudnet Linux platform. When you are in need of assistance, your experienced buddies at Cloudnet are always available to help and answer your questions.
Key management
Access to the server is managed by Cloudnet with personal SSH keys for best security practices. We are always aware of who has access and can easily revoke it when someone quits their job or when changing circumstances necessitates it.
When ordering new accounts your existing developers will automatically get access to the new account.
DNS management
Let Cloudnet manage your DNS issues, and you won’t have to worry about unnecessary interruptions, problems with spurious SPAM classification and long reply times when doing changes.
Cloudnet has a global presence and high resistance to Denial of Service attacks against the DNS infrastructure using anycast technology.
Deploy
Cloudnet Managed Platform supports most commonly used deploy methods such as SFTP, git pull, Circle Ci, DeployHQ, rsync, and others. We recommend that you use Cloudnets own deploy method where you do a git push to the server. Please contact us to get started with git deploy.
Custom monitoring
The best way of preventing and discovering problems on your website is to regularly make a call and compare the answer to what is expected. If there are any discrepancies, a Cloudnet service technician is notified immediately. The call may, for example, look for a specific word on the webpage, or utilize a specially made monitoring endpoint that checks up on your application to see that everything works as expected.
