What Is a Managed Cloud Server?

A managed cloud server is an environment with dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, storage) where Infomaniak handles:

  • System administration – OS updates, security patches
  • Monitoring – 24/7 monitoring with alerts
  • Backups – Automatic and restorable
  • Security – Firewall, DDoS protection, SSL

You focus on your application, Infomaniak manages the infrastructure.

Who Is Managed Cloud For?

High-Traffic Websites

If your site receives tens of thousands of monthly visitors, shared hosting can become a bottleneck. Managed cloud guarantees sufficient resources.

E-Commerce

Online stores (WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento) need consistent performance, especially during peak times (sales, holidays). Managed cloud absorbs these loads.

Web Applications

SaaS, business applications, intranets: these projects often require more resources and flexibility than standard shared hosting.

Signs It\'s Time to Move to Managed Cloud

  • Increasing page load times
  • 503 errors (server overloaded)
  • Database slowing down
  • Steadily growing traffic
  • Need for specific configurations

Guaranteed Performance

With Managed Cloud, your CPU and RAM resources are dedicated and guaranteed. No more slowdowns from noisy neighbors!
