Hosting two domains using only one VPS?

Is it possible? Someone told me it is but I'm not sure.

If its possible, how should I do it? I have one /www folder where my website lies. How can I configure 2 different sites?

Is there a hosted CouchDB service provider? [closed]

I'd like to learn CouchDB and wondered if there was a host provider that offered CouchDB services. If you have used one please detail your experiences.

Update:

I discovered thta CouchDB is available in Ubuntu on a VM slice. I am interested in anyone's experience with running the VM solution and accessing the data with .Net. Is a hybrid solution feasible with .Net web server and REST calls to CouchDB on Linux? What extra security measures did you have to take. Was cross site scripting a concern?

Is it possible to use AWS as a web host?

Is it possible to load / host an entire website using AWS? Or is it only a service that can load specific pieces of a website - such as images, etc. Obviously, I'd want to use my own domain. If you can use it, are there any limitations?

Here's the AWS link, for context:

http://aws.amazon.com/s3/

Python cloud hosting other than Google App Engine? [closed]

What options exist for Python Cloud Hosting other than Google App Engine?

I'm looking for solutions that let me write and publish code to servers that will scale up automatically to meet demand. I don't want to spend my time on IT tasks.

So far, I've really only found this: https://www.picloud.com/

App Engine is great, but has some immaturity limitations such as lack of https support.

Looking for a web host that can handle Haskell

I'm looking for a web host that will let me run a Haskell web application. VPS's seem attractive to me because you can run essentially anything you want. But some of the cloud hosts offer really nice scalability in terms of hard disk space and bandwidth.

Does anyone know of a host that will let me run exotic languages like Haskell but can also seamlessly scale up the hard disk space/RAM/bandwidth/CPU available to my host?

Should I put my ASP.NET websites in the wwwroot folder?

I have a number of websites that run under IIS on a single machine.

Should I put these websites inside of the C:\inetpub\wwwroot\ folder or inside the C:\inetpub\ folder?

E.g.

• C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Website1\
• C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Website2\

or

• C:\inetpub\Website1\
• C:\inetpub\Website2\

Are there any pros/cons for either or another recommended location (I only have a C drive on this machine)?

I am not sure whether there is a "correct" answer to this, but want to follow best practice if there is one.

Many thanks, Jonathan

Are there any free Team Foundation Servers we can host projects on? [closed]

are there any free Team Foundation Server sites we can use for our private development? Please don't say CodePlex (which I love) because that means the code is all opensource.

Lastly, I also understand that some people might raise the issue of having their private code hosted somewhere by people they do not know, etc.. so please don't raise any security concerns.

I'm guessing there are no free services because of licensing reasons?

Hosting providers for .Net 4 / MVC 3 applications [closed]

I’ve developed an application over .Net 4 / MVC 3. And now I want to host, this is my first ever hosting experience so I'm confused and seriously need help.

It’s not so complex application basically serving as a community image sharing website. Now I'm looking for a hosting service for it, I don’t know much about it but what I’ve learnt I think I need following in it.

• Host provided using IIS 7 (that’s fully supports .NET4/MVC3 so I could ideally use MVC routing functionalities totally, without having the headache of adding extensions in route and support functionalities (File MIME Types, Custom Error Pages etc.)
• As it’s a community website, so it should remain available 24/7 like good server performance and availability, so users don’t get bugged by server not available and alike errors.
• Domain registering/hosting functionality, Security
• SQL Server support, an easy control panel (I think Cpanel?)
• Dedicated IP address for my website (for SSL and better SEO)
• Ideally unlimited bandwidth/space packages (because it image sharing so it can be increasing in both parameters)
• And of rouse as it’s not actually a commercial product so be compact in price.

I know I’ve put up a lot of points up, but I’ve also searched through other threads and other forums and found out these as recommended options, any words over their performance and support:

Are there any image hosting services with a public API? [closed]

I've been considering image hosting services for a project but am starting to wonder if that's just too complicated for my target audience as they'd have to upload all their images to the hosting service and then "attach" the images to the CSS file using the links the hosting service provides them. While that's a fairly simple process for us developers, I'm thinking that might be a large barrier to getting user buy-in for this feature.

I could simplify by hosting and serving the images myself but I'm worried about potential scalability issues that could present which I don't have the hardware or bandwidth to handle at the present time.

My thought is that I could have users upload their images and CSS to the server in a single zip file to the web server which could then extract the files from the zip, push the images on to an image hosting service, programmatically get the corresponding URL from the service and update the CSS accordingly before attaching it to the user's display profile.

This approach could kill both birds with one stone, I wouldn't have to worry about the bandwidth issues caused by serving potentially large images on every profile request and the user doesn't have to go through the headache of needing to set up an account on an image hosting service.

Does anyone know of any image hosting services that I can programmatically integrate with that has good reliability and performance that could assist me with this conundrum?

Thanks in advance

Cleanest & Fastest server setup for Django [closed]

I'm about to deploy a mediumsized site powered by Django. I have a dedicated Ubuntu Server.

I'm really confused over which serversoftware to use. So i thought to myself: why not ask stackoverflow.

What i'm looking for is:

• Easy to set up
• Fast and easy on resources
• Can serve mediafiles
• Able to serve multiple djangosites on same server
• I would rather not install PHP or anything else that sucks resources, and for which I have no use for.

I have heard of mod_wsgi and mod_python on Apache, nginx and lighty. Which are the pros and cons of these and have i missed someone?

@Barry: Somehow i feel like Apache is to bloated for me. What about the alternatives?

@BrianLy: Ok I'll check out mod_wsgi some more. But why do i need Apache if i serve static files with lighty? I have also managed to serve the django app itself with lighty. Is that bad in anyway? Sorry for beeing so stupid :-)

UPDATE: What about lighty and nginx - which are the uses-cases when these are the perfect choice?

Amazon ec2 vs AWS Elastic Beanstalk [closed]

Can someone please explain what is the difference between EC2 and Beanstalk. I want to know regarding SaaS, PaaS and IaaS.

To deploy a web application in wordpress I need a scalable hosting service. If there anything better than my purpose, please let me know as well.

Just to inform, I want to host&deploy multiple wordpress and drupal sites.

I do not want to give more time for the server and focus on development. But the cloud hosting needs to be auto scalable.

How to setup Django website in Amazon EC2 hosting?

Can someone give specific steps how to implement hosting a Django based website by using Amazon EC2 hosting service?

Is that possible?

My website source code can be found here

I goolged and found this article

But before doing anything I just want to get some basic ideas about Amazon EC2 hosting.

Why is p2p web hosting not widely used? [closed]

We can see the growth of systems using peer to peer principles. But there is an area where peer to peer is not (yet) widely used: web hosting.

Several projects are already launched, but there is no big solution which would permit users to use and to contribute to a peer to peer webhosting.

I don't mean not-open projects (like Google Web Hosting, which use Google ressources, not users'), but open projects, where each user contribute to the hosting of the global web hosting by letting its ressources (cpu, bandwith) be available.

I can think of several assets of such systems:

• automatic load balancing
• better locality
• no storage limits
• free

So, why such a system is not yet widely used ?

EDIT: I think that the "97.2%, plz seed!!" problem occurs because all users do not seed all the files. But if a system where all users equally contribute to all the content is built, this problem does not occur anymore. Peer to peer storage systems (like Wuala) are reliable, thanks to that.

The problem of proprietary code is pertinent, as well of the fact that an user might not know which content (possibly "bad") he is hosting. Thanks for your answers.

I add another problem: the latency wich may be higher than with a dedicated server.

EDIT 2: The confidentiality of code and data can be achieved by encryption. For example, with Wuala, all files are encrypted, and i think there is no known security breach in this system (but i might be wrong).

It's true that seeders would not have many benefits, or few. But it would prevent people from beeing dependent of web hosting companies. And such a decentralized way to host websites is closer of the original idea of the internet, i think.

How to evaluate hosted full text search solutions?

What are the options when it comes to SaaS/hosted full text search? How should I evaluate the different options available?

I'm looking for something that uses Lucene, solr, or sphinx on the backend, and provides a REST API for submitting documents to index, and running searches.

I could build my own EC2 AMI, but I'd have to configure EBS and other stuff, monitor it, etc.

Which is the best git hosting sw? - Gitolite vs. Gitlab vs. Gitorius [closed]

I am looking for a git hosting environment for several users. Therefore i've searched for comparisons between Gitolite, Gitlab and Gitorius. But i get nothing what could be useful.

Is there anybody, who has experiences with different hosting tools and could provide an advice?
