Newbies jvickey21 0 Posted October 23, 2020 Newbies Share Posted October 23, 2020 I currently use FM CWP for my business/website. My current setup is: - FM18 database w/ a FM hosting provider Memory: 8GB Disk space: 30GB - Website w/ same FM hosting provider Shared web hosting (they do not offer VPS) By hosting my db and website with the same provider, I supposedly benefit from speed (same location), but I'm concerned that using shared web hosting runs the risk of site downtime. Over the next year, I expect my web traffic to grow significantly. Would anyone recommend I change my web hosting to a VPS (virtual private server) with a different provider to reduce the risk of downtime? (I would not change my db host.)

ggt667 10 Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) I'm not sure how you have done your setup, however I find it imperative for performance and SEO to prerender data from any database to HTML post edit. For FileMaker I have written XSLTs that export data for each product and article post edit. That is I do an export of the record in question using FileMaker's export XML feature with a given stylesheet for the site in question. I use FileMaker's DocumentPath() for this and export to a folder name given by the project itself, and a filename that fits its purpose such as ~/Documents/webshop/product/123571262.fmpxmlresult.xml in which renders to ~/Documents/webshop/product/123571262.html using ~/Documents/webshop/product.xslt For searches I export the FileMaker data to both postgreSQL( Where as postgres will reply to such pages as the equivalent of: https://www.newegg.com/p/pl?d=ddr4 ) and elasticsearch( like the filter on the left hand side of the same page ) I run rsync every 1 minute from ~/Documents/webshop/product/*.html to webshop:www/product/ over ssh Make sure you make a sitemap that points to all the .html files for optimum SEO. Such as pr example https://github.com/TyrfingMjolnir/fmpxmlresult2sitemap Edited October 23, 2020 by ggt667 Link to post Share on other sites
