Serious power. A better home for your OpenCart store.
Enterprise AMD EPYC processing, mirrored NVMe storage and LiteSpeed Enterprise. Backed by the OpenCart specialists who understand your checkout, extensions and daily operations. Meet OCS Flamingo.
Physical server capacity. Your store’s resources and limits are specified in your hosting proposal.
01
Power where your store needs it
Modern processing and low-latency storage support database queries, product pages, imports and busy shopping sessions.
02
Protection in layers
Active threat protection, encrypted connections, server maintenance and scheduled backups work together to reduce operational risk.
03
One team for the bigger picture
Speak to specialists who can investigate the hosting and the OpenCart application together, instead of leaving you between suppliers.
BUILT AROUND THE WAY YOUR STORE WORKS
01
Enterprise hardware with room for real ecommerce workloads
Flamingo uses an AMD EPYC 9454P processor with 48 physical cores and 96 threads, approximately 128 GB of installed memory, and enterprise Samsung NVMe drives in a mirrored RAID 1 configuration. This is a powerful foundation for serving shoppers while background work continues.
Multi-core capacity for concurrent requests and scheduled tasks.
NVMe storage for low-latency access to files and database data.
Mirrored disks provide resilience if a drive fails. RAID does not replace backups.
We size your plan around traffic, catalogue, integrations and background jobs.
02
Speed is about the complete OpenCart stack
LiteSpeed Enterprise handles web traffic, while PHP and MySQL power your store. We review the interaction between hosting, Journal, extensions and database queries. That gives performance work a useful starting point, rather than treating every slow page as a server problem.
Cache strategy suited to your store, with customer-specific pages kept out of shared page caches.
PHP version and settings selected after compatibility checks, including PHP 8.5 where the application supports it.
Attention to image delivery, slow queries, scheduled imports and external API calls.
Store-specific performance checks, from product discovery through to the checkout.
03
Layered security, maintained by people who know OpenCart
The platform uses Imunify360 protection, firewall controls and automated security maintenance. HTTPS protects data in transit. We combine server-side protection with practical attention to the software running your store.
Threat detection and malware scanning add protection around the hosting environment.
Automated service monitoring helps identify availability problems.
Supported PHP versions and application compatibility are reviewed together.
Store updates, extensions, account access and custom code remain part of a sound security approach.
04
Backups and recovery deserve a clear agreement
Flamingo has scheduled account backups. For your hosting plan, we confirm the backup schedule, retention and restoration arrangements before you move. We also discuss how much recent order data your business can afford to lose and what a recovery would involve.
Backup frequency and retained restore points are written into the proposal.
Restoration scope and any recovery charges are agreed in advance.
Stores with frequent orders may need additional backup arrangements.
A backup is a recovery measure, not a promise that downtime or data loss can never happen.
05
A managed migration, with your orders in mind
We review your current store before arranging the move. Files, database, PHP compatibility, DNS and any connected services are considered together. A test copy lets us check key functions before the agreed switch.
Review OpenCart, Journal, extensions, catalogue size, email and integrations.
Prepare the new environment and test the storefront, account and checkout flow.
Agree how to handle new orders and data changes during the final transfer.
Plan the switch, rollback approach and post-migration checks. Any expected interruption is discussed beforehand.
06
Know what you are buying before you commit
We recommend hosting around your actual requirements. Your proposal separates the hosting allocation, migration work and ongoing support, so you can see what is included and how future growth will be handled.
Storage, traffic, CPU/process and memory limits for your account.
Domains, multistores, databases, email and management access where required.
Support hours, contact route, response arrangements and application maintenance scope.
Price, billing period, migration costs and any agreed availability commitments.
Does my store get all 48 cores and 128 GB of RAM?+
No. Those figures describe the physical hosting platform. Your account allocation and usage limits are specified separately in your proposal. Dedicated or unusually demanding requirements should be discussed before ordering.
Will moving automatically make my store faster?+
Better hosting can remove infrastructure bottlenecks. Results also depend on your theme, extensions, database, images and external services. We review these factors and agree relevant checks rather than promise an unmeasured speed increase.
Can you host my existing OpenCart and Journal setup?+
We assess your exact versions, extensions and PHP requirements. We aim to use a supported PHP runtime. Older or incompatible code may need changes before migration, which we identify and scope with you.
Are SSL, backups and migration included?+
The proposal states what is included, including certificate management, backup frequency and retention, restoration and migration work. This also makes any optional services or charges clear before you decide.
Is the hosting completely secure or always online?+
No hosting service can remove every risk. Flamingo combines enterprise hardware, disk mirroring, active protection and monitoring. Any service-level commitments and recovery arrangements are confirmed in writing for your plan.
What does hosting cost?+
The price depends on your store’s workload, storage, traffic and support requirements. Share your current setup and we will recommend a suitable plan with a clear price and scope.
