What is an instance

An instance is defined as a container of resources sharing technologies with its physical host that are preinstalled for you on a Cloud Computing platform.

In Gandi's Simple Hosting service, there will be several types of instances, each containing a different set of programming languages, database systems, etc that will allow you to host your web applications.

The first type of instance that we are making available is a PHP/MySQL instance. It will be followed by an HTML-only instance (no database or PHP interpretor).

Several different types of instances will be defined in the future depending on the feedback that we get from customers and their complexity.

An instance contains shared resources, but they are clearly defined by software limits.

Definition of resources by type of instance:

  • HTML: not yet defined (beta)
  • Python, Ruby, etc: Other instances will be provided as we receive feedback and requests from our customers. Feel free to make suggestions and vote on your favorites on our Hosting Wishlist (or send them to Support).
