Multiple webroots per single application
More advanced PHP applications can have multiple webroots accessed via different subdomains. For example, one is the public website for customers (www.mydomain.com) and another for the staff (accounts.mydomain.com).
For example, Cloudways is advertising support for Yii Framework (https://www.cloudways.com/en/yii-hosting.php). This framework implements the mentioned architecture in the following way:
There are "frontend" and "backend" modules in the application directory and each of them has a separate webroot. The configuration could look like this:
www.mydomain.com -> /path/to/yii-application/frontend/web/
accounts.mydomain.com -> /path/to/yii-application/backend/web/This could be even configured on a basic cPanel hosting. I have already asked on the support…

Preserving IP address when cloning server - making scaling down hassle-free
Scaling up is easy.
Scaling down (with Vultr, DigitalOcean or Linode) requires to clone a server.
When cloning, server gets new IP address - this causes a lot of hassle with application integration or DNS configuration.
SUGGESTION:
It would be great to make scaling down hassle-free, so that after cloning server could have the same IP as previous server.7 votes -

720 Permissions on app creation Issues
There was an infrastructure update that defaults files/directories to 720 permissions. Now FTP users no longer see any of the files or directories because of these permissions. Chat support's "solution" is to use the "reset permissions" function, which will then change the permissions of files and directories to 770.
First, why were the default permissions changed from 664/755, to 720? I've never seen this configuration before, so it seems odd to me.
Second, why is this a two step process for FTP users to gain access to the public_html directory? The default application permissions should MATCH the "reset permissions" permissions.

SSL Session Cache
Add the ability to turn on sslsessioncache.
Gives a speed boost for but also cuts down overheads for not having to request new keys every time a page request is made.
This is a pretty standard option, it shouldn't cause any conflicts as can be set individually on drops.
This is one line for a quick gain...current SSL testing is failing on this point.

DesktopServer version 3.5.2 has a new direct deployment feature to get your WordPress websites from your desktop to your hosting provider in
DesktopServer version 3.5.2 has a new direct deployment feature to get your WordPress websites from your desktop to your hosting provider in just a few clicks.
To do this Cloudways must support File System Direct.
File System Direct is a (PHP) feature that allows WordPress to write files to the local file system on the server. At the moment it does not so we can't use this feature in DesktopServer.

Multiple IP addresses assigned to a server
I would love to have the option to assign multiple IP addresses to a server, so we can have different apps each on its own IP, on the same server. Right now, we have to boot up a new server (multiplying the costs) each time we need a new IP for an app.

Possibility to upload server key and CSR for SSL certificate
I think there should be possible besides generating CSR uploading own CSR and key for the SSL certificate. This would minimize time when migrating from some other server
