Looking for Managed hosting
Looking for Managed Hosting Services
I'm seeking initial managed hosting services tailored for MySQL-intensive PHP websites, with a focus on:
- Server Updates: Automatic and timely updates to maintain system security and performance.
- Daily Backups: Reliable, daily backups to protect against data loss.
- Smooth Operation: Proactive monitoring and maintenance to ensure consistent website uptime.
The service should include:
- Initial Panel Setup: Setup of either cPanel (preferred), DirectAdmin, or HestiaCP control panel.
- Website Migration: Professional migration of existing websites to the new server.
Hardware Preferences:
- Processor: While I appreciate Ryzen for PHP performance, I prioritize options with a higher core count for improved stability across my applications.
- RAM: Sufficient RAM to handle the load of my MySQL-intensive applications.
- Storage: Minimum of 500GB storage space to accommodate current usage (under 120GB) and future growth.
No overloaded crap please.
Location preferences: Preferably somewhere near nyc, i have elasticsearch & some micro app instances near there.
Budget:
- Currently spending $60/month, open to increasing the budget based on service quality and features.
- Email services are hosted externally, so no email hosting is needed.

Is AMS also good?
Do not look for managed services on low end. It will end in terrible note. A ton of low end providers are very incompetent and you will suffer in the long run.
Go with high end or just hire admin.
