Some applications need an operating-system service, dedicated resources or deployment controls that shared hosting does not provide.
What to do
- Describe the application stack, expected traffic, data size and required background processes.
- List runtime versions, root-level dependencies, queue workers, scheduled jobs and external APIs.
- Identify backup, monitoring, recovery and maintenance responsibilities that the project needs.
- Request an environment assessment and written quote before purchasing a server or moving the application.
Good to know
JIJ Premium is shared hosting. A managed VPS is a separately scoped service; its resources, management boundaries and third-party costs must be quoted.
