Hosting WHMCS in the Cloud

[PPL]

Are any of you hosting WHMCS on EC2, Rackspace, or with another major cloud service provider and happy with the outcome? If so, what configurations/instance sizes are working well for you? I understand that most customers are hosting on their own hardware, but that's not the business I'm in and I would prefer a cloud deployment. Thanks in advance!

Hello,

WHMCS is a lightweight PHP/MySQL driven application, so Amazons EC2 or Rackspace's environments should be fine assuming system requirements are met:

We are using Stormondemand's 4GB plan and it is working fine. With 2GB it used to fail some times.

Hi,

You'd just need to contact the licensing department and we can adjust your licence so it can be used in a multi-IP-address environment.

Thank you all- that's very helpful. I'll be sure to look at 4GB options, Ishan.
