Welcome to Hostarium

Welcome to Hostarium – A new kind of hosting, built on top of the latest technology and powered by Google Cloud.

We are three web hosting industry veterans with over 30 years of experience in the field of websites. In that time, we have seen technological improvements in the industry largely stagnate. Aesthetics aside, most hosting platforms work the same way now as they did back in the 90s. Whilst functional, a large amount of technical debt and outdated design assumptions has left limited scope for technical development and improvements in the user experience.

We created Hostarium to change that. We make use of the latest and greatest containerisation technology, in the form of Kubernetes, to build our system. Containerisation is a technology that allows applications to be deployed in isolated instances called containers. These are entirely independent from one another, which provides high levels of security as well as greater flexibility in adjusting configs to work as well as possible for a specific application.

Of course, whilst we are experts when it comes to running and managing websites, we know not everyone is. Hostarium is designed to be as easy as possible and to take the work of complex management out of your hands. All deployed applications are fully managed, so all you have to worry about is creating your online world.

What’s managed?

Here are just some of the features Hostarium provides:

  • Automatic Software Updates
  • Offsite Backups
  • Intrusion Protection

 

Of course, that’s just scratching the surface, and we’re really excited to see what people create with Hostarium. And if something comes up that isn’t handled by our systems, we offer 24/7 support provided by people who really know what they’re talking about. No canned responses, ever.
