We are excited to announce a significant update to our CloudLinux OS product line. As part of our ongoing commitment to innovation and delivering the best value to our customers, we have decided to rename CloudLinux OS Shared license to CloudLinux OS Legacy. The “OS Shared” license has supported the most critical needs of shared hosting providers since the introduction of CloudLinux OS and will continue to do so under the label of “OS Legacy”.
This change is part of a strategic move to better align our product offerings with the features and enhancements we are developing. Our goal is to focus on providing new and exciting capabilities through our flagship products: CloudLinux OS Shared Pro, CloudLinux OS Solo, and CloudLinux OS Admin. These editions will receive all future feature updates and business value improvements, ensuring that our customers continue to benefit from the latest advancements in server performance, security, and manageability.
Why the Change?
The name change from CloudLinux OS Shared to CloudLinux OS Legacy reflects our shift in focus towards the future. While CloudLinux OS Legacy will continue to receive the same reliable service, security updates, and base operating system improvements, it will not include any new features. Instead, all upcoming enhancements such as limit bursting, fleet management, and end-user upsell automation will be available exclusively in our CloudLinux OS Shared Pro, CloudLinux OS Solo, and CloudLinux OS Admin licenses.
By concentrating our efforts on this flagship line, we aim to drive innovation and offer unparalleled value to our customers who are looking for the most advanced solutions in shared hosting, VPS, and dedicated server hosting.
Key information:
- Unchanged Service for Legacy Users: If you currently use CloudLinux OS Shared licenses or plan to purchase more in the future, rest assured that this change will not impact your service, ongoing compatibility and security updates or support. The only change is the name.
- Continued Support: Security updates and operating system improvements for CloudLinux OS Legacy (and all other license editions) will continue as usual.
- Flagship Product Line: Our focus is now on CloudLinux OS Shared Pro, CloudLinux OS Solo, and CloudLinux OS Admin.
