• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey. If your responses match the persona we are looking for, you'll receive a link to schedule a call at your convenience. We look forward to hearing from you!
  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Plesk Onyx on shared hosting

layerwire

Basic Pleskian
Greetings,

we are using Plesk Onyx for sharing hosting and it's pretty good, but anyway we have one question.
Many clients asked us what they can do with git, node.js, ruby and python.
What are limits then it's not VPS and you can't log in under root. Is there any point to having this features for shared hosting users?

Thanks.
 
Many clients asked us what they can do with git, node.js, ruby and python.

To be very short: nothing.

99.9% of the shared hosting clients want a fast website and working email, no viruses and NO SPAM !!!

We are over 18 years in shared hosting now and 0 (zero) people ever asked about python, 0 (zero) asked about ruby, and 1 (one) ever asked about git.
node.js is simply dangerous on shared hosting:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node.js
Node.js allows the creation of Web servers and networking tools using JavaScript
That is the last thing you ant on a shared server.

We don't offer these in our hosting accounts.
People that need them, know what they are used for, they don't asked for it in a shared account, they take a vps.

regards
Jan
