Web hosting: today's recommendation

@scottalanmiller did some performance testing a few years back. https://mangolassi.it/topic/8520/serverbear-performance-comparison-of-rackspace-digital-ocean-linode-and-vultr. I wonder what changes we've seen since?
Linode, Digital Ocean, and Vultr have always been top of the list for VPS at least. Hosted services is imagine they be decent for as well, but I've never used them for that
We need a new test, since ServerBear is gone. GeekBench, maybe.

We use Vultr behind Hostadillo for a reason. It is crushing both DO and Linode in performance, and leads them in pricing, too. They recently dropped their prices to match, but not until Vultr had been cheaper (about half the price) for most of a year.

We found that if you use PHP, CentOS requires a bit of extra management, stuff that makes CentOS no longer make sense, to get good performance. Getting PHP 7.2, for example, on CentOS, negates the reason to use CentOS in the first place.
Fedora gave us way better perforamnce.
What caching layers are you using?

How do you like Centos web panel? Did you migrate from cpanel?

Isn't it actually Control Web Panel? Their domain is CentOS, btu the product is COntrol. I'm guessing that they got a court order telling them to change since that is obviously using a trademark.

That might be the case. Most or the reading I've done has referred to it as CentOS web panel. The name may have changed recently. Idj

If you do a search on control web panel vs Centos web panel. You got many more threads of people talking about the product. Even official documentation refers to it as CentOS web panel.

Well it happened in this thread, for example. Lots of people call things wrong, often for a very long time. Hyper-V Core anyone? lol

Their own documentation refers to it as CentOS web panel. Their domain is Centos-webpanel in addition to the phrase proudly displayed on their header "CentOS web panel is installed on 10,000+ servers."

Is their logo wrong? Maybe who knows?

I doubt it's a legal reason because it's prominently still displayed everywhere on their site.

Possible, but would be weird.

The more I look, the more I just feel that they are confused.

Yeah, even on their FB page it jumps back and forth.

It's all going to be dependent on what you want. For my personal stuff I use GitLab pages and Hugo.
Big fan of Go language?
Yeah. I love it.

Name put aside, it's just what I've known it as, I also use ISPconfig on another VPS, I think both web panels just work and have no issues with either.. I've used cpanel/whm many times in the past and quite like cpanel but just chosen to use what I use, obviously if you don't want to worry about updating your VPS and don't want the hastle then just use regular web hosting.. I'm just stating what I use in the thread and by no means giving advice to use what I use.
