Platform

Our hosting platform doesn’t fall into any of the traditional hosting categories. Our entire infrastructure is built on the Google Cloud Platform and is very different from traditional shared, VPS, or dedicated infrastructure. Furthermore, we make GCP’s compute-optimized C2 and compute engine general-purpose C3D VMs (Google’s fastest servers) and premium tier network available for all our customers at no additional charge.

Kinsta utilizes LXD managed hosts and orchestrated LXC software containers for each site. What this means is that every site is housed in its own isolated container, which has all of the software resources required to run it (Linux, Nginx, PHP, MySQL). The resources are 100% private and are not shared between anyone else or even your own sites.

All sites on Kinsta are protected by our Cloudflare integration, which includes an enterprise-level firewall with application-specific rulesets, automatic wildcard SSL certificates, and DDoS protection. Unlike other hosts that charge extra for WAF and DDoS protection, our Cloudflare integration is completely free for all Kinsta customers.
