Simple File Transfer Protocol
The entire login session is encrypted while using SFTP, including password transmission. Therefore, the benefit of the SFTP protocol is that your data remains secure throughout the entire transmission process.
LAMP
LAMP includes Linux, Apache, Mysql & PHP / Python / Perl, and in addition, it is an immensely common platform for high-performance web application creation and deployment.
PhpMyAdmin
You can build, modify, drop, remove, import, and export MySQL database tables through this software. Thus, you can run MySQL queries, optimize, repair, and check tables, change collation, and execute other database management commands.
Secure Shell
You only need to identify yourself for once by using ssh and get secure access to all remote clients by simply adding your public key to the authorized key of the client.
Mail integration
We will help you to integrate your current email services or new mail services with the specified e-commerce store in the Mail Integration package.
DNS Mapping
We’ll provide you with the DNS Mapping function to link your website to your current domain. We need your DNS panel credentials to map your domain with your website, or if you do not want to share your credentials for security purposes, then we will assist you to do the same for sure.
CDN(Content Delivery Network) Integration
CDN helps to speed up the delivery of content of websites with high traffic and global reach. Therefore, the more users are closer to the CDN, faster the content will be delivered to the user.
Website Modification Report
We provide a special add-on script in your Linux Server which helps you to detect the hacking attacks on your application end. However, it helps you detect problems inside your application and secure your server after any malicious code has been targeted.
SSL (Secure Socket Layer) Integration
Secure logins, creating a secure session, secure data transfer & secure database connections, and more are some of the reasons why SSL integration is needed for online transactions.
AWS Automatic Backup
In order to protect the organization’s loss of data, you need to incorporate a data backup and recovery plan for the server. You can back up the data on your EBS volumes to secure your organization’s data by simply taking a snapshot of it. EBS Active snapshots provide all the information needed to restore your data to a new EBS volume (from the time the snapshot was taken).
Resource Monitoring Notification
In this feature, we will provide you with real-time notifications about your server resources. In accordance with the standard, we will set a threshold limit on each and every resource and automate the monitoring feature that allows you to recognize the problem and provide you with real-time expertise to troubleshoot or resolve the key cause of the problem.
Server Activity Monitoring
We will be providing full activity monitoring on your server like login alerts, user activities over an SSH connection, user activities over SFTP connection, the listing of IP addresses from where logins have been attempted, the listing of failed login records, and files modified on the server through the mail.
GitHub/BitBucket Integration
GitHub is a platform where the world develops software. GitHub/BitBucket provides a cloud-based Git hosting service for the server. The integration helps you to access your Magento eCommerce Cloud environments directly from your GitHub repository.
Application Load Balancing
A load balancer is a separate server that functions as a reverse proxy and directs incoming user traffic to one or multiple servers connected to the load balancer so that the services won’t be disrupted at the time of heavy traffic. We use the AWS load balancer which forwards the traffic across multiple targets (say EC2 instances) depending upon their availability. Therefore, It can easily handle the load of the application traffic across single or multiple availability zones. This effectively eases the burden on all web servers.
Amazon ElastiCache Redis for Cache and Session management
Amazon Elasticache works as an in-memory data store and cache to support the most demanding applications requiring submillisecond response times using Redis. It offers fully managed Redis for your most demanding applications that require sub-millisecond response times. Therefore, the management of cache and sessions in Redis will provide a substantial performance boost.
S3 integration for Magento 2
Amazon S3 (Simple Secure Storage) is a cloud storage service offered by AWS (Amazon Web Services). Using the module, the store admin can upload downloadable products, media files, product content, images of all Magento 2 product types from their local disk to the Amazon S3 server. Also, it uses the CloudFront for serving the content CloudFront URL.

We will migrate your nameservers from the existing DNS panel to Cloudflare.
