### IT Monitoring Software Need Cloud Monitoring Capabilities to Achieve Success
](https://www.g2.com/articles/it-monitoring-software-need-cloud-monitoring)
The importance of IT monitoring software has risen significantly as many companies nowadays operate in a hybrid cloud environment. Enterprise monitoring software allows companies to monitor both on-premises and cloud infrastructures, whereas legacy IT infrastructure monitoring software can only monitor on-premises environments. However, making the transition from legacy systems to cloud isn’t easy.

Server virtualization software enables organizations to deliver more capabilities on a budget. But this comes at the cost of security. Virtual servers are one of the prime targets of ransomware attacks. In the past week, ransomware called ESXiArgs has been attacking a server virtualization product VMWare ESXi.

Question on: cPanel
[Advice for starting web hosting](/discussions/advice-for-starting-web-hosting)

Hello everyone, I have a question... Currently, I am running an SEO agency, I also provide custom website design and development services, but I want to extend my list of services by adding hosting services. So, the question is should I add web hosting services to my existing website? Or should I start a new separate website for this purpose? You guys are professional, so you can give a piece of good advice. That's why I'm asking you... You can check my current website here: https://thedesignsfirm.com/. Review it and answer, please. Thanks!

If you are starting a web hosting business and looking for the right server OS, my honest advice from running Hostperl in New Zealand is to go with AlmaLinux 8 from day one. Do not waste time evaluating too many options — AlmaLinux 8 is stable, long term supported and works perfectly with cPanel and WHM which are the industry standard hosting management tools. A few practical tips from our experience: First, pair AlmaLinux 8 with CloudLinux from the start. CloudLinux adds per account resource limiting which prevents one client from consuming all your server resources and affecting everyone else. It is worth every penny and your clients will thank you for the stability. Second, set up automated backups on day one — not after something goes wrong. AlmaLinux 8 works seamlessly with cPanel backup tools and external backup solutions. Daily backups saved us multiple times when clients accidentally deleted their own files. Third, keep your OS updated regularly. AlmaLinux 8 supported images make this easy — security patches are released quickly and applying them takes minutes. A patched server is a safe server. Finally do not underestimate server monitoring. Set up error logging and alerts from the beginning so you know about problems before your clients do. AlmaLinux 8 has excellent built in logging tools that integrate with most monitoring platforms. Starting with the right foundation makes everything easier as you grow. AlmaLinux 8 is that foundation for us and we have never regretted the choice.
