The technology stack that runs your site

Managed Hosting is built on proven, industry-standard open-source technology, all configured and maintained for you:

• nginx with PHP-FPM serves your web pages quickly and efficiently, which suits everything from a brochure site to a busy content-managed site.
• MySQL and PostgreSQL are both available, so database-driven applications and content management systems are fully supported.

You never install, patch or tune any of this yourself — that's our job. The point of the stack is simply that your site runs on serious, reliable infrastructure rather than a cut-down environment, while you get on with your business.
