Web Hosting Laravel Applications
Web Hosting Laravel Applications Laravel is one of the most acclaimed PHP web application frameworks with expressive and elegant syntax. Yet many developers continue to host their Laravel websites on shared hosting platforms in order to save costs; unfortunately this often leads to app deployment issues and poor website performance due to limited resources provided by shared hosting solutions.
There are alternatives to shared hosting that can provide the necessary features and flexibility needed for running a Laravel-based web app, including dedicated and VPS/cloud hosting options that offer more control and scalability when scaling an app using Laravel.
If you’re planning to deploy a Laravel website, the initial step should be uploading project files via FTP or an SFTP client. Once uploaded, configure your web server so it will serve your Laravel website by editing the.env file and setting appropriate values.
Cloudways provides a reliable host for Laravel applications, and their hosting platform has been tailored specifically for them, featuring performance optimizations to increase site speed. Their server types also meet your individual requirements – for instance their Turbo Servers feature AMD EPYC processors equipped with NVMEe drivers to achieve up to three times faster read/write speeds and two-times faster time-to-first-byte rates; plus they come equipped with numerous security features including HackScan protection, KernelCare updates, two-way firewalls and brute force defense for additional peace of mind.
