Managed cloud hosting means a provider runs much of the cloud server work for you. It helps you host websites and web apps without handling every technical task yourself. For example, you can move an existing site or put a new app online. This saves time and makes ongoing hosting easier to manage.

    For more control

    Self-hosting gives technical teams more control over how their cloud setup is run, while managed hosting can keep specialist support close by.

    • OpenStack gives technical teams an open-source, self-hosted cloud platform with command-line and developer tools.
    • Bonsai suits teams that want managed hosting backed by migration assistance and a dedicated account manager.
