  2. add option to specify swap file size

    Normally the swap file size is configured for optimal performance of the server. However there are times that you need a little more memory even at the cost of lower performance (especially if that need is temporary and circumstancial). In these cases it would be useful to be able to change the swap file size (within reasonable limits).

    One such case occurred to me when I tried to use composer on a magento 2 app, on a 1GB server. 1GB RAM + 256MB swap is simply not enough for composer to run successfully. The only option is to move to…

  6. Static cache expiry set by file type

    It would be nice to have the possibility to set different cache expiry limits for different file types. At least images, CSS and JS

  7. Allow changing Wordpress admin credentials and make default password stronger

    Admin Area Access credentials for Wordpress are not correct when cloning a website. This causes confusion on what the correct password is. Also, when adding an application, the default password created for wordpress credentials are rather weak. Would like ability to set more secure password and also change/sync a password with Admin Area Access details so that this information could be shared among admin staff.

  8. Allow Server Master Credentials to access all MySQL databases.

    Having a single user account that can access all the databases under a given server would simplify administration. The Server Master Credentials seems like a logical choice.

    Currently I open an SSH tunnel for database access and it would be great if the same tunnel credentials could also connect to the databases.

  9. Update application Layout

    Update the application list to cards or smaller, I can only see 5 apps before the fold on my screen, would be better to have a grid of apps.

  10. Allow customers to create database users

    When having Master Credentials you con go to the MySQL Manager and create a user, but when you want to save you get:
    "Access denied; you need (at least one of) the CREATE USER privilege(s) for this operation"
    You should allow permissons for Master Credentials to creat DB users

  11. Provide "strace" utility.

    This unix utility ("strace" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strace) is of great help, in finding out, what an apparently hung process is doing. It is required for master users, to do self-administration of their servers/processes.

  12. Enable Cloudways Migrator to include migration from local host (PC) etc

    The CW migration plugin won't allow migration from local host. I understand Cloudways is used for production purposes but some people still like to develop on localhost PC etc. It would be advantageous if this restriction was fixed.

  13. Configure Cloudways Magento Stack to point to corret tmp folder

    After installation, magento tmp folder is not configured, so it's use /tmp by default. It's cause problems with magento store cloned in the same server.

    You need to configure the file lib/Zend/Cache/Backend/File.php, in the line who says

    protected $options = array(
    'cache
    dir' => null

    to

    protected $options = array(
    'cache
    dir' => '../tmp'

  14. Enable Encrypted RDS MySQL Database

    Enabling Encrypted MySQL Database on Amazon AWS would enable encryption at rest and improve security.

    This would be a truly unique offering (trust me, I have been researching this for days), one that I can't believe isn't more requested or offered given the hacks and breaches we have seen over the last few years.

  15. subdomain configuration without auto adding 'www' into the database for Home URL and site URL

    subdomain configuration/assignment to an application without auto adding 'www' into the database for Home URL and site URL (in the option table). When we configure a dubdomain for an application, ex : sub.mysite.com, it writes 'www.sub.mysite.com' into the siteurl field and home filed into the Database.

  16. Percona DB (for performance)

    Percona DB would be a nice addition to the packages available on Cloudways (if you care about performance).

    What You Need to Know About the MariaDB & Percona Forks of MySQL
    https://blog.appdynamics.com/database/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-mariadb-percona-forks-of-mysql/

    TL,DR summary: MariaDB is better for advanced features, the latest security and adapting to new tech. Percona excels at database performance and diagnostics. Either one will put you in good company with cutting edge technology firms around the world.

  17. Make Cloudways RESTful Api Discoverable

    It would be awesome if cloudways' RESTful API was discoverable. That way I wouldn't have to manually update my code when the api changes. I could also pull the api info in and constructed the functions needed to use the API with out having to hardcode anything.

  18. Add tmux to terminal

    Would be nice to have a tmux sessions to use one connection to a server. This will become more popular when you add the load balancing some of infrastructures may hide child nodes from internet, but use the internal network instead

  20. Penetration Testing Form

    Amazon AWS has a form to let them know you want to do penetration testing: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/penetration-testing/

    There should be a process at the cloudways level to facilitate this communication between the infrastructure providers and your end user/customers.
