ASO alternative

Thanks @thwr but not sure if this will help me. First of all i dont speak german and not sure if that site has a translated version
-
No, it doesn't. Don't know where you are located, could have been an option if you´re in the UK for example.
When choosing a hosted package for a blog, keep an eye on database restrictions like reduced table size.

I am from the United Arab Emirates, Dubai. Was previously on hostgator and moved to ASO. Still checking on all possible options.

@Ambarishrh said in ASO alternative:
I am not very happy with ASO, my site goes down every month at least 10-15 times with no reason! The support team always says, yes they had some minor downtime, but when it happens every month, that is unacceptable.
Our monitoring system says that we get downtime from time to time, but it is for seconds and we've never been able to observe it. It's so fast that we can't recreate it.

Could be a cleanup process in the webserver, like killing no more used forked threads. Have seen that before. Any type of clustering or load balancing involved, aside from CloudFlare?

Wow, we get nothing like that. What tool are you checking it with?

That's hard. Most hosters will guarantee something like 99% uptime. What about ASO?

What we see is way, way above 99% uptime. Likely @Ambarishrh is, too. 99% isn't as high as people think that it is. 1% downtime is a lot of monthly downtime. That's as much outage per hour as we see in a month or two.

Cloudways is awesome!

How granular does it test? Like if it hits a momentary outage, how soon until it checks back again? We use Alertra and it shows outages in terms of seconds.

They offer web hosting? I thought that they just did VPS.

Oh interesting, that is really neat. I guess I've not looked into that one before. It's more of an automation framework for other platforms.

I am running all my sites off of AWS S3 buckets and with global CloudFront enabled for less than $1,00/mo. Even have a few basic eCommerce type sites running on this using stripe and a free heroku dyno for payments. you can always run an ec2 instance if you needed the server.

Currently using the 14 days trial of Cloudways and now in the process of migrating my WP site to the new server. Just started with the $5 DO server, will update here about the results!
