Serve Twice the Traffic on the Same Hardware
LiteSpeed replaces Apache in 15 minutes with zero downtime. It handles more concurrent connections with less memory, LSCache serves pages from shared memory, and Layer-7 DDoS throttling runs before PHP even loads.
Event-driven architecture serves twice the concurrent connections on a fraction of Apache's memory.
Replaces Apache in 15 minutes — reads .htaccess, mod_rewrite, and vhosts natively. Zero downtime.
Per-IP throttling, server-level reCAPTCHA, and brute-force blocking before PHP runs.
LSCache with Edge Side Includes at every tier. Two license sizes.
LiteSpeed Features
Double Your Server Capacity
LiteSpeed uses a fraction of Apache’s memory and CPU per connection. Dynamic content can run much faster, and the same hardware can serve more simultaneous visitors without running out of headroom as quickly.
Layer-7 DDoS Defense
LiteSpeed runs your existing mod_security rules but adds per-IP bandwidth and connection throttling, server-level reCAPTCHA challenges for suspicious traffic, and WordPress brute-force protection that blocks wp-login floods before PHP even runs.
HTTP/3 + QUIC Built In
LiteSpeed was the first production web server with HTTP/3 support. QUIC transport eliminates head-of-line blocking and cuts connection setup time, especially for mobile visitors on unreliable networks. LiteSpeed also enables TLS 1.3 with certificate compression by default.
LSCache with Edge Side Includes
LSCache stores full pages in shared memory and uses Edge Side Includes (ESI) to serve personalized content (logged-in users, shopping carts, region-specific pricing) without flushing the entire cache. WordPress sites get a dedicated LSCache plugin that handles purge and preload automatically.
Multiple PHP Versions
Run PHP 7.4, 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3 side by side on the same server. Each site can target a different version, which helps when migrating legacy applications or hosting clients with different requirements.
Full cPanel Compatibility
LiteSpeed reads Apache configuration files directly (.htaccess rules, mod_rewrite, virtual hosts), so you keep your existing cPanel/WHM workflow. Our support team handles the swap in about 15 minutes with zero downtime.

Common Questions
Which add-ons are best for Cloud VPS?
Most Cloud VPS buyers start with performance (LiteSpeed), control panel (cPanel/WHM), and security (Imunify360 or managed firewall) based on workload needs.
Do these add-ons work on App Hosting too?
Many App Hosting features are built in, so not every VPS add-on is required. Use App Hosting for managed platform defaults.
How is add-on billing handled?
Add-ons are billed at the rate and cadence shown on each product page. Usage-based add-ons (such as per-seat licenses) list the exact unit price. You can review current charges in the billing dashboard.
