Web hosting
A web container is the basis for a website. A website container is made of:
- An Apache HTTP server
- An IP address
- A user
- A data directory
Several web containers use a RedHat Linux based virtual machine. Web containers can be moved between different virtual machines quickly and easily. Activation options include:
- A Java applications server Tomcat,
- The authentication method LDAP and Shibboleth (AAI)
- A MySQL database
- The scripting languages Perl, PHP and Python
Preconfiguration: Apache, Tomcat, Perl, PHP and Python are available in the version of the operating system.
Web containers are provided to ETH organisational units free of charge.
We will charge for:
- Disk space for large amounts of data. Following the approach for network attachment storage.
- Work which exceeds normal maintenance of the web container (e.g. installing applications).
A web container can be ordered using via IT-Shop.
