The type of cloud server host
The types of cloud server provided by each host dealer are different.
operating system
The cloud server plan usually only provides a list of basic operating systems without bloated software -these software may be helpful for usage, but it is not necessary. We provide the most common Linux distribution for Web servers: CentOS, Debian, and Ubuntu server. Some may provide more UNIX operating systems for niche users, including Gentoo, Arch, and even FreeBSD derivatives.
Internet application
As mentioned earlier, the cloud server is mainly the basic operating system environment. However, some consoles also provide pre -configured cloud servers for specific network applications. This is sometimes called software, which is service (SaaS). For example, we provide Ansible control nodes based on Linux, which is used to automate a large number of remote system redundancy tasks.
Some of the most popular application server types are:
Server management applications, including CPANEL, Webmin/Virtualmin, VESTA control panel and CentOS network panel (CWP)
Network application and content management system (CMS), such as wordpress and nextCloud
Network application firewall (WAFS), such as PFSENSE provided by DDOS, similar to Sucuri and content delivery network (CDNS).
Load balancer, such as haproxy, used the domain name system (DNS) record to disperse the network server request to multiple synchronous servers
Virtual private network, similar to forward proxy, is used to use Open or Wireguard to obtain online privacy.
