Hosting for online shops

Shop hosting that stays fast at checkout – even at peak load

An online shop has different requirements from a brochure website: shopping cart and checkout cannot be cached, promotions and newsletters create load peaks, and every minute of downtime costs sales. Our editions from Profi upwards are designed for exactly that – for WooCommerce, Shopware and other PHP shop systems.

Performance

What a shop needs from its hosting

Product pages cache well – shopping cart, customer account and checkout do not. There, what counts is how fast PHP and the database respond.

  • Dedicated PHP-FPM pool from Profi: your shop shares no PHP processes with other customers
  • Redis object cache from Basic: takes load off the database for catalogue, filters and cart
  • 512 MB PHP memory limit from Profi for imports, price calculation and extensions
  • NVMe storage, HTTP/3 and Brotli for short loading times
  • Reserved CPU and RAM shares instead of fair use in Company and WordPress Max

Security

Protection for checkout and customer data

Shops are a rewarding target: they hold customer accounts, orders and payment flows.

  • Web application firewall in every edition, with rules for WordPress, TYPO3 and Shopware
  • Free vulnerability monitoring for Shopware, WooCommerce and their plugins and themes
  • Backup twice a day, kept for 21 days (Profi) or 30 days (Company)
  • SSL certificate included, commercial certificates possible in parallel
  • Data processing agreement included, our own systems in data centres in Germany, France and Finland

Planning

Before launch and before big promotions

Load peaks can be planned for – if you know them. In the Company edition we load-test your shop before it goes live and give you a named technical contact. On request we set up a search service (OpenSearch or Meilisearch) for fast product search. We migrate your existing shop in every edition.

Frequently asked questions

What customers ask us about this

Which shop systems can I run?

PHP-based shop systems such as WooCommerce and Shopware, as well as other applications on PHP and MariaDB. The web application firewall comes with its own rules for WordPress, TYPO3 and Shopware.

Is the Basic edition enough for a small shop?

For a small shop with few visitors, Basic with Redis cache is possible. We recommend Profi, because there your shop gets its own PHP pool and more memory for PHP.

Will you migrate my existing shop?

Yes, migrating shop, database and mailboxes is included in every edition. We agree the timing with you so that no order is lost.

What happens during a big promotion or a newsletter send-out?

In Company and WordPress Max, CPU and RAM shares are reserved for you. If you are planning a bigger promotion, let us know beforehand – in the Company edition we test the load before the start.

How long are backups kept?

Profi: twice a day, 21 days. Company: twice a day, 30 days. Premium: four times a day, 30 days. WordPress Max: daily, 90 days. We restore backups on request.

Do I need my own SSL certificate?

No, an automatically renewed certificate is included. If you want a commercial certificate, you can use it in parallel.
