Introduction One of the most critical issues for companies providing server management and web hosting services is balancing resource consumption on shared hosting servers. At this point, CloudLinux comes into play as a solution. CloudLinux is a Linux-based operating system developed to use server resources more efficiently, increase security, and prevent sites from affecting each other.

What Does CloudLinux Do?

Resource Management: Prevents one user from occupying the entire server by assigning CPU, RAM, and I/O limits to each user.
Security: Isolates each user with CageFS technology, preventing them from accessing other users' data.
Stability: Prevents the entire server from being affected in cases such as sudden traffic increases or malware infections.
Optimized Performance: Maximizes server performance with add-ons such as LiteSpeed, MySQL Governor, and PHP Selector.

CloudLinux Features

LVE Manager (Lightweight Virtual Environment) Takes each user into an independent virtual environment and limits resources such as CPU, RAM, and Disk IO.
CageFS Allows users to work in their own isolated environments. It is not possible to interfere with another user without root privileges on the server.
MySQL Governor Monitors heavy usage on the database server. Users with high MySQL resource consumption are automatically limited.
PHP Selector Offers each user the opportunity to use different PHP versions. (From PHP 5.2 to PHP 8.2)
Imunify360 Integration CloudLinux servers work in full harmony with Imunify360. This ensures the detection and prevention of malware.

CloudLinux Installation CloudLinux installation is quite simple.

It is done with the following steps:

Connect to your server as root via SSH.
Obtain your license key.
Run the installation script:

wget https://repo.cloudlinux.com/cloudlinux/sources/cln/cldeploy
sh cldeploy -k YOUR-LICENSE-KEY
reboot

CloudLinux becomes active when the server restarts.

CloudLinux Licensing To use CloudLinux, you need to purchase a monthly or annual license. Licenses are generally IP-based, and billing is done according to the number of servers you provide.

For license purchases through Eka Sunucu, you can review our Shared Hosting, VPS Servers, and Cloud Hosting options.

Why More Secure and Stable Server Management with CloudLinux? Thanks to CloudLinux, each user uses their own resources and is not affected by other users. This isolation structure significantly increases both performance and security.

In addition, with PHP Selector, your sites can run on different PHP versions, providing compatibility for older applications.

Conclusion CloudLinux is an indispensable technology for hosting companies and companies that manage intensive servers. If you want to establish a more stable, secure, and optimized hosting infrastructure, you should definitely consider your CloudLinux investment.
