When we describe web hosting to new users, we use an example of a building complex to make it easier for them. Think of a building complex with twenty apartments for example. You’re looking for a new apartment, maybe because you’re tired of the services you’re getting from your former provider or just because you want a fresh start. We provide you with a flat in our apartment and you get to share common resources with them and have some of the coolest neighbours. Curious about what cloud hosting is?
However, you may want to take over the entire complex and have it to yourself. That way, you have more access, full control and no more shared resources to go. That’s why we’re announcing this new product which allows you to do all of this. Let’s call this cloud hosting.
With cloud hosting, you’re able to get control and flexibility when your business needs it. You are also able to spin up your choice of a virtual machine as fast as possible. Apart from these, the standard configurations provide flexibility for you to build, test, and grow your app from startup to scale.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between shared web hosting and cloud hosting?
As we explained earlier, with shared web hosting, you’re basically splitting apartments with co-tenants. That means you get to share space with a few people. In a situation where you have someone who is a noisy tenant, all the attention comes to him and you may have to fight for your peace and quiet. However, with cloud hosting — you’re entitled to the whole environment and your own fair share of resources without competition.
How do I know what plan to pick?
If you’re not sure, we recommend that you start small and work your way up. You can resize your machine up or down at any time, so there’s no pressure. You can also send us an email — support@leanstack.co to help out.
Do you offer backup services?
Yes, we do. However, it comes at a token. You can set it up when configuring your server or add it at a later date from your dashboard.
Would I be able to resize my server after setup?
Yes, you will. You can also start small and work your way up. You can also send us an email — support@leanstack.co to help out.
