What’s your ideal web hosting server setup for performance, security, and scalability?

Hi,
I’ve been reviewing different approaches to structuring web hosting environments and noticed quite a few variations among providers.
Some seem to prefer the classic single-server setup (cPanel/WHM with CloudLinux, LiteSpeed, and Imunify360), while others go for a more modular approach — splitting services across VMs or using Proxmox or similar virtualization for isolation.
I’m curious how everyone here structures their stack for shared or reseller hosting, especially when aiming for:
Stable performance under heavy load
Efficient resource isolation (CloudLinux, CageFS, etc.)
Security (Imunify360, CSF, or alternative setups)
Ease of scaling (adding new servers, offloading databases, using central DNS, etc.)
Do you prefer an all-in-one optimized stack, or do you separate web, mail, and MySQL services?
Also, what’s your experience been with LiteSpeed vs. NGINX-based stacks in real-world hosting scenarios?
Would love to hear how you’ve built and evolved your setups over time — what’s worked well, and what lessons you’ve learned along the way.
