Some questions regarding hosting:
Jamroom Hosting
tettlingen:
Hi!
I´m about to lauch my site soon, and I´m concidering jamroom hosting. If you don´t mind, I´d like to ask a five questions regarding hosting, third party code, multiple domain names and amazon s3 .
1 If I like to use/install 3rd party software or CMS and create additional mysql databases?
Like PHPBB, opencart, addservers and other stuff?
Do I need a secondary webhosting to make this possible or is it possible with jamroom hosting?
If I can´t create my own databases, can you help me set up additional databases if necessairy, so I can install third party things inside my jamroom sites?
Jamroom Hosting is only setup for Jamroom - not other scripts, so you'd want a separate hosting account for your other scripts.

2. Can I create subdomains on jamroom hosting?
EX: thirdpartysoftware.domain.com
Yep - no problem.

3. Amazon s3
Does it require cloud core, or can I buy just this module Amazon S3 Media and let it run by itself?
( or is it Included as free module when I sign up at hosting?)
It requires the Cloud Core module, but all modules (including cloud modules) are free with hosting.

4. CHANGE MEDIA FILE LOCATION S3- to place X:
If I start with a modest site and want to change to a local files or jamroom storage solution. Can I transfer the amazon s3 files (audio, video etc) to a New place and reconnect them there without any problems for my users?
I expect that, over time, that the size of music, video media will be quite large.
Yep - the S3 module has a tool to transfer to/from S3 and local storage.

5. Multiple sites, multiple domain names possible?
I can have more or many jamrooms sites running on hosting, right? Can I use domainname1.com on site1 and domainname2.com on site2 etc?
Yep - we have customers running over 30 Jamroom domains on their server, so that's no problem.

Thank you
(Other things.... No questions, just verifying functions. If I have missunderstood anything, please let me know.
* I can upgrade to larger hosting over time.
Yes - you can upgrade/downgrade with a single click.

* Access ALL files, skins, admin, cach, modules etc via ftp.)
JR hosting only supports SFTP, but yes - you can access all your sites from SFTP.
Hope this helps!
