  1. Application Environment for application specific secrets

    Currently to pass application specifics secrets (DBURL, APIKEYs, etc) the only options are to store them with your code (not best practice) or to edit the Application Settings / PHP Settings and manually configure them using php-fpm flag:

    env[KEY] = VALUE

    An interface such as Application Environment next/in to Application Settings which lists sets of 2 inputs (KEY, VALUE) which then generates an environment specific php.ini to be loaded by php-fpm will make it much easier for customers to configure these variables

  2. Multiple Laravel Version during installation

    As a developer, I have multiple projects up and running on cloudways server. This is a gr8 hosting platform. But sometime when it talks about the upgrade it just completely forget about the limitation developer might be facing. Like I have hosted my one laravel project in version 5.2 other in 5.4. Now I have been working with my another project, and due to the php limitation of my server which is 5.6 i just chose to develop my project in 5.4. Today i tried to push my development in the server just to find out my limitation yet again.…

  4. Provide status information about all your cloud provider and send alert in notification bot

    The only way to check the status of the infrastructure is to check status.cloudways.com but if anything happens in the side of any service provider (ex: Kyup) then we don't get any information.

    I would prefer that you give us earlier alert via notification bots, or emails when there is an issue that affects many customers.

    You should keep a certain level of QOS and being accountable for the technical issues of your technology partners in order to avoid them.

  6. Have team members create their own support tickets (not on behalf of me)

    Hi,

    I would like to give team members support access but just their own access. Not on my behalf. The team members are in this case separate customers so they only need to see their own tickets and create only tickets according their own application.

    Cheers,
    Jaap

  7. support naming application folders and databases arbitrarily

    The current scheme is absolutely impossible to remember. Even when renaming folders, the randomly selected name remains as the new name is a link.

    That means this would have to be asked for before anything has been set up.

    Usually I want to name the folder and database to the (sub)domain or the actual application name. What's easier to remember than that?

    Support at least letters, digits, "-", "_", ".", unless restricted by the database engine in question.

  8. admin-ajax.php requests to be cached using Varnish

    We all know that the site loading speed depends a lot on Admin-ajax.php. Immaterial of the Heartbeat or any other setup we do on server side, it takes humongous time when loading on client side any how.

    Also i read there is a solution to cache this Varnish config so as to help in reducing site load time.

    This would be beneficial for all customers @ Cloudways as it would reduce there load time drastically.

    https://guides.wp-bullet.com/how-to-cache-ajax-get-requests-with-varnish-4/

    Also if you see in any clients Relic stats these ajax requests are on top of the list in consuming resources on the server…

  16. Sells only servers with IP that do not have old DNS records pointing to

    Cloudways should require from infrastructure providers that only servers with IP are assigned to cw customers, without orphaned DNS-records pointing to.

    We had unbelievable efforts to get the DoubleContent entries out of the web from old DNS-records stored/cached in Cloudflare-system from old/former IP-holder. Without possibilities to change/delete the foreign records it's a disaster!

    Would be very important to check automatic for NO orphaned DNS-records from old user/domain (from Cloudways or the Infrastructure Providers).

    Otherwise there will be a lot of unnecessary and very time-consuming work steps for Cloudways clients!

  17. Notifications access for users with full access

    Would be great to allow your system admin who has full access to get access to all notifications.

    I signed up as business owner but don't manage the server so would be great to see this.

  19. create a separate architecture for membership wordpress

    wordpress scales better with cache. but this cache is a nightmare if yours is a membership site. the members always see pages guest page loaded from cache, not there account specific page.
    so having a correct cache setup for membership site is a mandatory.

  20. Add a button to apply MYSQL user ownership to the public_html directory

    Adding a button to apply MYSQL user ownership to the files public_html directory for Moodle will save CSR time and allow them to work on more pressing issues. At the moment you have to contact Cloudways to fix the permissions on that folder after you upgrade your Moodle installation.
