WordPress Hosting and Architecture

Code Media strongly recommend a LEMP stack configuration for WordPress. This is mainly due to Nginx's (pronounced "engine X") faster performance under load on comparable hosting hardware. Because Nginx uses an event-driven asynchronous approach to handling web requests it does not create a new process on each transaction, unlike Apache does, which provides for improved scalability. Apache has has traditionally been the "go to" web server software of choice for most PHP based open source ecommerce, website and bloggin platforms due to tha wide range of supported modules, extensions and features. But, Apache has suffered from it's thread based architecture which requires significant memory and CPU resource on busy blogging or corporate websites. In short, if you are starting out on WordPress our advice would be go use Nginx and the LEMP stack instead of Apache and LAMP. Code Media offer a full hosted WordPress website packages that start from as little as £20 per month.

Regardless of your stack Code Media can optimise either or utilise your existing cloud based hosting infastructure to ensure delivery of a high performance WordPress website.
