What is a Elastic Site SSD Hosting Server

An Elastic Sites server at 040Hosting is a fully managed instance within our hosting infrastructure, it is not a VPS where a client gets a virtual environment including the OS instead we virtualize the application layer and don’t copy several OS’es; this has some perks as your system will not be as much tweak-able as a VPS would but on the other hand you will have more and more important faster direct resources available, this is why our shared-hosting accounts are often already much faster as the low end VPS servers but for our Elastic Site servers the resources get multiplied for your usage and you are provided with a massive amount of memory to work with. This results in very fast webhosting and the only logical step from here would be a dedicated server with even more resources. Our Elastic Sites servers are available in Europe, USA and Asia*. we are not for nothing your number #1 choice in reliable webhosting. * For Asia please contact sales for pricing.

040Hosting has several locations available for your Elastic Sites SSD Hosting account ; in Europe; Haarlem (the Netherlands), Strasbourg (France), Düsseldorf (Germany) and in the St. Louis, MO but also in Asia, Singapore (a surcharge applies for our Singapore Elastic Sites servers contact sales for your needs).

Cloudlinux

All 040Hosting Elastic Sites Hosting Servers run CloudLinux, CloudLinux is the Operating System your websites run on, All CloudLinux innovations, such as CageFS, aim to improve security and stability on servers. So where other operating systems will allow entire servers full of customers to go down, CloudLinux stays stable by isolating the impact to the offending tenant.

KernelCare

We Keep your sites secure, KernelCare lets us apply 100% of the important kernel security updates released by our Linux vendor without rebooting. Giving you more Up Time and Security. Issues are often patched before the supplier has an official patch ready. This is what you should demand from any provider, keeping their OS secure at all times on the fly without reboots. All our Elastic Site Servers come with Kernelcare as default.

PHP Version & HardenedPHP

You can choose your PHP version freely per account, for this we also utilize HardenedPHP, HardenedPHP secures old and unsupported versions of PHP. In those old versions, including the widely used 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and (as of June 2016) 5.5, vulnerabilities, even if discovered, are not patched by the PHP.net community. HardenedPHP takes care of all this.

No Oversold Services

A very common practice in the hosting business is to oversell the servers with promising users more resources as the server actually has for such clients. 040Hosting does not oversell any of its services, this means that also our Elastic Site servers are not oversold. All promised resources are reserved for you as client. That makes us #1 in the high performance hosting.
