Running a site backup is always a good idea, especially when high availability is an important component to your site hosting. One of the disadvantages in using Cloud or a shared hosting solution is that you lose a significant amount of diagnostics information regarding application performance and where you should invest your development resources. Combining NewRelic with any VPS is a winning combination.

You can work to keep your bandwidth costs down by using CloudFlare. As long as you don't need SSL caching it's free. We find that on media-intensive sites the bandwidth usage can be reduced by about 30% and pages load significantly faster.

Our VPS servers are high-performing with 100Mbps or 1GbE connections. Other advantages include round-the-clock monitoring, daily offsite backups and stellar support. We go above and beyond with our MODX clients when they have application issues.

We're offering 15% off the first month of all new VPS packages through the end of the year when you use the code "MODXVPS15". If you prefer to try us out for free, we have a free shared hosting offer at http://skytoaster.com/toast12

If you have any other questions let me know!

Best,

Matt

We have not officially nailed down the bandwidth limitations at this time, but basically they will be fair and generous when we do.

A Production Cloud can have multiple fully-qualified domains (however, you'll need to use a Context switching plugin to use the multiple domains). It can also have as many subdomains as it wants, without any extra purchase required.

A dev cloud can also have subdomains; however, it cannot have any fully-qualified domains. This is the main difference, at this time, between dev and prod clouds.]]> splittingred Dec 12, 2012, 10:28 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/81108/questions-about-modx-cloud#dis-post-446872 https://forums.modx.com/thread/81108/questions-about-modx-cloud#dis-post-446854 We're developing a new site with Revo and we're considering a MODx Cloud account to host it as we move forward but I have a few questions. First and foremost, I can find no mention of bandwidth allotment on the site. The plans only mention production/dev clouds and storage space. Does this mean all MODx cloud accounts have unlimited bandwidth?

Secondly, is a production cloud a single domain? Do subdomains require extra production clouds? Is the only difference between a production cloud and a dev cloud the domain name that points to it?

Any insight will be appreciated. Thanks!]]> dwillis210 Dec 12, 2012, 08:52 AM https://forums.modx.com/thread/81108/questions-about-modx-cloud#dis-post-446854
