E-Commerce in the Cloud

Build an e-commerce website with all of the advantages of the cloud:

  • Maximal uptime
  • Redundant RAID-1 storage of your data
  • Scalable resources
  • Flexible pricing (start small and grow when you need to)


Our exclusive E-Commerce Cloud Server is backed by the power of Linux (CentOS) and uses the best open-source software available, including osCommerce, the Apache web server, and the MySQL database engine. Since everything is released under the GNU General Public License, this means you pay NO license fees!

You get osCommerce pre-installed and configured for use out of the box. osCommerce is one of the largest open-source e-commerce packages available, and is backed by an army of developers who continually add new features. There are a wide range of add-ons available to make it easier to customize the store to your unique needs.

You don’t even need to know HTML – there are a number of free (and paid) templates available to make the site look however you want.
