# Managed Linux hosting *** How do you create a secure and highly available operations environment? **It’s simple—let us do the work.** We are experienced in delivering operational solutions that demand high performance, strong security, and maximum availability. ## Who benefits from managed hosting? Customers of all sizes and industries use our managed hosting service. Some examples of organizations that gain particular advantage from the service are: * Small businesses with limited IT staff. * E‑commerce sites with heavy traffic. * Companies with a large digital presence and high security requirements. * Websites that rely on heavyweight back‑end solutions. ## What's included in managed hosting? With our managed hosting service, we handle the day-to-day operations of your server so you can focus on what matters most to you. We ensure that the operating system, web server, and database always have the latest security updates and run optimally. In short, you get **a more secure solution** and **you’re freed from all the technical hassle**. ### Monitoring A major benefit of managed hosting is that we continuously monitor your server. If an error occurs in any of the applications we manage for you, an alert is sent to our operations team, which then identifies and resolves the issue. We also check a specific search result on the website to verify that it is accessible to your visitors. ### Applications We work daily on optimizing the operation of websites and e‑stores built on platforms such as WordPress and Magento. We can manage these applications for you: * Apache * MariaDB or PostgreSQL * PHP * Redis * Memcached * Varnish * Elasticsearch A managed hosting server will always run the latest version of Debian, or, if you choose, Windows Server. ### Do you allow root access? To be able to take overall responsibility and provide a secure, reliable operating environment, we do not grant root privileges. If you need to make configuration changes to the applications we have installed for you, please contact our support team. ## What does managed hosting cost? Our system‑administration service starts at **1 136 SEK per month per server**. Costs for the server itself, backups, and any required certificates are billed separately. ### If you have other needs Don’t hesitate to contact us if our configuration doesn’t match your requirements or if you need a more complex solution. ### Can I get system administration for a clustered setup? Yes, of course. We work with clustered solutions for customers who need high availability, for example: * Galera replication for MariaDB (master‑master) * Load balancing and multiple web/database servers to spread the load * Elasticsearch ### Can I get system administration on Windows? Absolutely! Get in touch with us and we’ll give you more details. ## Ordering managed hosting When you order system administration, we set up the server for you. Therefore, you cannot order managed hosting for an already existing server. To get you started with managed hosting, we need to know: ### What type of server do you need When placing an order for managed hosting, you specify the type of server you need. You can choose managed hosting on either a virtual machine or a dedicated server. Regarding the server’s resources, we have a minimum requirement of 2 CPU cores, 2 GB of memory, and 20 GB of storage. If you’re unsure what you need, we’ll help you select the most cost‑effective solution possible. ### What applications do you need? We need to know which services and applications you require for your website to function. If you’re unsure, we can talk with your web agency or developer to determine what’s needed. Feel free to use the checklist below when you email us your order. Which of the following do you need: * **SSH** – Specify the IP addresses you will connect from. We'll whitelist these in the firewall so you can access the server. * **FTP** * **Apache** * **PHP** * **Redis** * **memcached** * **Varnish** * **Elasticsearch**—include the version you wish to use. * **Domain**—Which domain will you be using? ## Ready to get going?
