Hosting

How websites and applications are actually hosted and kept running — the skills behind every hosting company and self-managed server. This track builds on the Linux web-server stage; start there for the hands-on server setup, then come here for the hosting picture.

Guides

1. How Web Hosting Works — the request lifecycle, and shared vs VPS vs dedicated vs cloud.
2. Domains and DNS for Hosting — registrars, nameservers, and every DNS record type you'll touch.
3. Web Hosting Control Panels — cPanel, Plesk, CyberPanel & friends, and when to use one.
4. Email Hosting — the mail stack and the DNS that keeps you out of spam.
5. Databases for Hosting — MySQL/MariaDB setup, users, and backups.
6. Backups and Site Migration — a real backup strategy and moving sites with minimal downtime.

Hands-on first

Many of these tie directly to the Linux track — set up Nginx, PHP, and HTTPS in a home lab as you read.
