General

ServOrbit.com is a brand of MEGALOGI, a company specializing in digital services since 2014. Our teams support you anywhere in the world, in English, French and Arabic.

ServOrbit is a digital infrastructure platform for businesses, agencies and developers: domains, hosting, VPS and a template Marketplace, all in one place.

Our servers are in Helsinki (Finland) and Falkenstein (Germany). It is not a setting you pick at order time: VPS and hosting are served from these two locations.

Yes. We offer reseller plans for agencies and support tailored to professionals and businesses.

Yes, for specific needs (infrastructure, deployment, migration), contact us through the form by requesting a quote.

Search for a domain name, or choose a hosting or VPS plan, and your infrastructure goes into orbit within minutes. We support you at every step, whether you're just starting out or already an expert.

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA, EU regulation 2024/2847), with obligations phasing in through 2027, sets cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements placed on the EU market. Purely informational websites and online services (SaaS) accessed via a browser are generally outside the CRA's direct scope, which targets software products made available as such. However, if you develop a plugin, component, or software distributed to third parties, the CRA may apply. For a precise assessment of your situation, consulting a specialist in European digital law is recommended.

Yes, the European Data Act (EU Regulation 2023/2854) prohibits cloud service providers from charging egress fees for transferring your data to another provider, effective from January 12, 2027. The regulation also guarantees data portability and requires hosting providers to supply standardized export formats. When choosing a provider, check their portability policy now to avoid vendor lock-in.

Yes, the ServOrbit landing page generator is a public, free tool, and no payment card is required to generate a page. Generations are simply capped by a daily quota of free generations, so the tool stays available to everyone. Publishing the page online, however, requires a ServOrbit account and active hosting.

Expect two to five minutes to generate a complete page — longer if another generation is already running, as the engine handles one at a time. The generation engine is self-hosted on our own infrastructure, which is a little slower than a mainstream third-party service. The page then opens in a preview you can edit directly in your browser.

To publish, you need a ServOrbit account, active hosting and the domain the page will be attached to: the page is then deployed on your hosting and served on your domain. Without an account or hosting you can still generate, preview and edit your page, and keep its preview link. Nothing goes live until you explicitly ask for it.

Your draft is kept on ServOrbit, anonymously before you create an account, then attached to your account when you publish. The brief and product details you provide are sent to our generation engine, which is self-hosted. The resulting HTML is yours: you can rework it in the editor, and the page is never put online without an explicit action from you. Always proofread the text before publishing, as you remain responsible for the claims made about your product.

Yes, you can paste a product link and the tool will try to extract the title, price and images from it. That automatic reading is best-effort, however, as many marketplaces block it. The default path is therefore assisted manual import: you paste the title and price, add two or three photos, and generation starts from information whose accuracy you control.

Yes, if your organisation falls within one of the 18 targeted sectors (healthcare, energy, transport, finance, digital infrastructure…) and exceeds the size thresholds. NIS2 requires you to assess the risks across your entire supply chain, including your hosting provider: data storage location, contractual security commitments and incident response procedures. It applies from October 2026 in EU member states.

Yes, a TURN server (such as coturn) is essential for participants behind strict NATs or corporate firewalls to establish their WebRTC audio/video streams. Without it, some participants cannot connect or fall back to a degraded mode (audio only). In terms of resources, a Jitsi instance for light meetings (fewer than 10 participants) runs on a VPS at 299 DH/month with 8 GB of RAM and 4 vCPU; beyond that, plan for a higher-tier VPS or a dedicated server.

The Cyber Resilience Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/2847, full application December 11, 2027) targets **manufacturers of products with digital elements** placed on the European market — not hosting providers directly. As a hosting provider, ServOrbit is not subject to the CRA as a manufacturer. However, **if your agency or company develops applications, plugins, or extensions** distributed on the European market, you may be subject to the CRA as a manufacturer. ServOrbit can contribute to your CRA compliance through: EU data localization (documentable in your technical file), full infrastructure traceability (log access), and the VPS snapshots and backups you start from your client area (elements of your backup policy). For specific questions about your situation under the CRA, we recommend consulting a legal expert specializing in European digital law.

In June 2026, GitHub changed the Copilot pricing model by introducing 'AI Credits': each model request consumes a certain number of credits, which are capped depending on the subscribed plan. Pro and Pro+ plans have a monthly credit quota; intensive use (multiple developers, many suggestions) can exhaust the quota within days. This makes billing unpredictable and shifts the cost from a fixed monthly fee to variable consumption. In response, developers are migrating to self-hosted solutions such as Continue.dev + Ollama or Tabby on a VPS: fixed monthly cost, code data that never leaves your server, OpenAI-compatible API.

Yes. The fastest solution is to activate the Ollama template from the ServOrbit Marketplace: your VPS starts with Ollama pre-configured and an OpenAI-compatible API accessible over HTTPS. Then install Continue.dev in VS Code or JetBrains, and point it to your VPS URL in `config.json`. For teams, Tabby is an alternative: it offers a dedicated server with authentication, an IDE plugin, and specialized code models (StarCoder, CodeLlama). Recommended minimum configuration: 8 GB RAM VPS for a 7B model on CPU inference.

Since GoCardless closed its service for individuals, several alternatives are available: SimpleFIN (compatible with Actual Budget, US/Canada) and Enable Banking (EU, 2,700+ banks) are the most widely used. Manual CSV imports remain the most portable option. Some tools like Firefly III offer integrations via open banking APIs depending on your country. Check your tool's documentation for officially maintained connectors.

GDPR does not prohibit cloud AI services, but it requires a legal basis, transparency towards data subjects and, where the processor is outside the EU, adequate safeguards (standard contractual clauses, data processing agreement). In practice, processing personal data from client documents through a third-party AI service constitutes sub-processing that must be governed by contract. The on-premise alternative — hosting a local LLM with PrivateGPT or LocalAI on a ServOrbit VPS — keeps data within your own infrastructure with no transfer to third-party servers. Browse our AI template catalogue at `/vps-cloud` or contact us at `/contact` for guidance.

Yes. As of 15 August 2026, Mattermost ESR v10.11 is no longer supported: no security patches will be published for this branch. If your instance is exposed to the internet or a corporate network, updating to the next available ESR version is recommended within the following days. Start by backing up your PostgreSQL database before any operation, then follow the official Mattermost upgrade procedure (updating the Docker image and running migrations). Our support team can assist if you hit a blocker — open a ticket from your client area.

Yes, your AT Protocol identity is anchored to your DID (decentralised identifier), which is independent of the PDS server hosting your data. You can migrate your account from one PDS to another (including a self-hosted PDS on a VPS) without changing your handle or losing followers, as long as you trigger the official migration procedure (`com.atproto.server.requestAccountMigrate`). ServOrbit offers compatible VPS plans for self-hosting your own PDS; check our Marketplace for available templates.

**Shared hosting**: multiple sites share the same resources (CPU, RAM, disk) on a single server. It's the entry-level option, but performance can be affected by other tenants. Ideal for low-traffic showcase sites. **VPS (Virtual Private Server)**: dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, disk) are allocated to you on a shared physical server. You have full control over your environment (OS choice, software). Ideal for applications, e-commerce stores, and medium-traffic sites. **Dedicated server**: an entire physical server for you alone. Maximum performance, complete isolation. Ideal for critical applications, large data volumes, or strict compliance requirements.

Server location primarily influences **latency** for your users and **regulatory compliance** (GDPR, local data laws). **For latency**: what determines it is the distance between your visitors and the server. With us it is not a setting you pick at order time — VPS and hosting are served from Finland and Germany. **For the GDPR**: it does not require you to keep data inside the EEA — it regulates taking it out, through a European Commission adequacy decision (art. 45) or appropriate safeguards, standard contractual clauses foremost (art. 46). Hosting in the EEA spares you that step, nothing more. And the regulation only concerns you if you process data about people located in the Union — what counts is where they are, not their nationality. **For Moroccan sites**: our servers are in Helsinki (Finland) and Falkenstein (Germany), two countries named on the list of states providing a sufficient level of protection set by the CNDP in deliberation no. 236-2015. The transfer out of Morocco therefore calls for no authorisation request (Form F118); it still has to be mentioned in the processing declaration. ServOrbit hosts in Finland and Germany.

An Atlassian Data Center licence (Jira DC, Confluence DC) is an annual commercial licence priced per user, which includes updates and Atlassian support but comes with a cost that scales with team size. An open-source self-hosted solution such as Plane (project management) or Docmost (wiki) runs on your own server with no software licence fees; you manage updates and maintenance yourself. ServOrbit offers Docmost as a ready-to-deploy VPS template through the Marketplace; Plane is not yet offered for order there, but you can install it yourself on your VPS.

Start with the tool whose dependency is riskiest: most often that is internal messaging (Mattermost or Zulip) or file storage (Nextcloud), because an outage there is immediately felt. Migrate one service at a time, validate real-world usage before cancelling the corresponding SaaS subscription, and rely on a VPS with root access to keep full control of your data. ServOrbit.com offers ready-to-deploy templates for 170 solutions via the Marketplace.

DORA (EU 2022/2554), applicable since January 17, 2025, targets financial entities — banks, insurers, payment service providers, fund managers — and their ICT providers designated as critical. If you are outside that scope, DORA is not directly enforceable against you. However, if you host applications for a financial-sector client, that client may impose DORA-derived contractual clauses (Article 30: service continuity, SLA, audit rights). Reach out through the /contact form to scope your obligations.

ServOrbit provides a client area accessible as soon as you create your account, with no immediate commitment. VPS plans can be ordered either with monthly payment and no commitment — letting you test your setup — or with a 12-month commitment at a reduced rate, which is offered by default. The monthly option remains available at any time from the selector on the VPS page. For web hosting or reseller plans, no refund guarantee comes with the subscription: any request is reviewed case by case, under our refund policy. Write to us at [email protected] to discuss your situation.

As a processor within the meaning of the GDPR, ServOrbit.com processes your clients' data on your behalf and within the framework defined by your service contract. Our servers are located in Europe (Finland and Germany), which exempts you from additional steps for transfers outside the EEA. As the data controller, it is your responsibility to define the purposes, inform your own clients and enter into a data processing agreement with us if your situation requires it — our team can assist you at [email protected].

Shared hosting is suited to showcase sites, blogs, and small shops: it is managed for you (updates, server security) and requires no administration skills. A VPS is the right choice if you need root access, an isolated environment with guaranteed resources (vCPU, RAM, SSD NVMe), or if you want to deploy specific applications (Docker, Node.js, Python…). When in doubt, shared hosting is the natural starting point; you can migrate to a VPS at any time from your client area.

A workflow orchestrator like Temporal lets you run long-running or distributed task sequences reliably, even in the event of a failure: each step is persisted and can resume where it left off. You need one whenever a business process exceeds the duration of a single HTTP request — multi-step payment, server provisioning, email pipeline — or when multiple microservices must coordinate without data loss. For simpler use cases (form automation, API integrations), n8n or Zapier are generally sufficient. ServOrbit VPS instances are compatible with a Docker-based Temporal installation; see our guide in the marketplace to get started.

ServOrbit aims for an availability rate of 99.9% for its hosting, VPS and dedicated server services. This is a target, not a contractual commitment: under the general terms of sale, ServOrbit is bound by a best-efforts obligation, and no compensation is provided for downtime. The real-time status of services is available at /statut. For any incident you notice, you can open a ticket from your client area so that it can be investigated.

A SaaS tool is hosted and managed by its publisher: you access it online, but your data stays on their servers and you depend on their pricing and terms. A self-hosted alternative runs on your VPS: you have full control over your data, you choose when to update, and you control costs. The ServOrbit Marketplace offers ready-to-deploy templates for the most common open-source solutions.

Gitea and Forgejo are lightweight (512 MB RAM is enough for a small team) and install quickly; Forgejo is Gitea's community fork with more open governance. GitLab CE is more feature-rich (built-in CI/CD, registry, advanced RBAC) but needs at least 4 GB RAM and a robust VPS or dedicated server. For teams of fewer than 20 developers without complex CI/CD needs, Gitea or Forgejo is usually sufficient; beyond that, GitLab CE takes over.

A SaaS tool typically charges a monthly per-user subscription with no infrastructure costs. With a self-hosted VPS, you pay for the server once (from 99 DH/month/month at ServOrbit) but handle maintenance, updates, and security yourself. For teams of more than 5 people, self-hosting often becomes more cost-effective from the second year onwards. Our detailed comparison on the ServOrbit blog helps you calculate the break-even point for your use case.

A reverse proxy receives client requests and forwards them to one or more backend servers, hiding their real addresses. It typically handles TLS termination, redirects, access rules, and HTTP headers. A load balancer is a specialized form of reverse proxy whose primary function is to distribute traffic across multiple instances of the same service using an algorithm (round-robin, least connections, etc.) to avoid overloading a single node. Nginx Proxy Manager is a reverse proxy with a graphical admin interface, capable of basic load distribution, but optimized for routing domains to containers or services. A dedicated load balancer like HAProxy or Traefik offers health checks, more advanced distribution algorithms, and finer-grained high-availability management.

No. The ServOrbit reseller offer is shared hosting managed through cPanel and WHM, on our infrastructure, with no dependency on Microsoft or any CSP programme. The hosting you resell is therefore not exposed to Microsoft 365 or Azure licence price revisions. If you want to reduce your clients' exposure to cloud publisher price increases, the open-source applications in the Marketplace, deployed on a VPS, can complement or replace certain tools.

A self-hosted VPN like OpenVPN encrypts communications between your workstation or applications and your VPS, travelling over the internet. A private network between servers (datacenter internal interconnection or a mesh tunnel with WireGuard) directly connects multiple VPS instances on an isolated network segment, without exposing traffic to the public network. Both are complementary: the VPN secures remote access, the private network optimises internal exchanges between machines.

Yes, provided you control where the data is stored. By hosting PostHog on a ServOrbit VPS located in a European data center (Finland or Germany), all analytics data stays on your infrastructure, with no transfer to US third-party servers. That is precisely the advantage of self-hosting over PostHog Cloud. Technically, you still need to fulfill a few GDPR obligations on the application side: inform your users about data collection in your privacy policy, implement consent management (cookie banner), honor data deletion requests (PostHog has a deletion API by `distinct_id`), and configure a data retention period consistent with your purpose. ServOrbit has no access to the data in your PostHog instance — you are solely responsible for the processing. For questions about your specific GDPR compliance, consult a DPO or a specialized lawyer.

Self-hosting places your data on infrastructure you control: no third-party provider reads your traffic, changes API access terms, or removes a free tier. The cost is predictable — a flat VPS fee — regardless of the number of users or data volume. The trade-off is responsibility for maintenance and updates. ServOrbit offers ready-to-use VPS templates on the Marketplace to get started quickly, and a VPS administration option if you prefer to delegate server management.

Activepieces is released under the MIT licence, which allows unrestricted commercial use, including within an agency that automates its clients' processes. You can deploy the self-hosted version on a ServOrbit VPS with no licence fees. Only the managed cloud version is paid; the open-source version remains completely free, including for reselling automation services.

An automation tool (n8n, Activepieces) runs a predefined, deterministic sequence of tasks: each step is known in advance and the flow does not change during execution. An AI agent uses a language model (LLM) to dynamically decide which actions to take based on context, goals, and available tools; it can loop, correct its mistakes, and adapt its plan. Both approaches are complementary: automation handles repetitive, low-variability tasks, while the AI agent handles tasks requiring reasoning.

Law 09-08 requires a declaration to the CNDP whenever you process personal data, whether the processing is internal or delegated to a SaaS provider. If your CRM, messaging platform or cloud storage tool contains identifiable data of your clients or employees, the obligation applies regardless of where the servers are hosted — including for tools whose infrastructure is outside Morocco. For each relevant processing activity, you are the data controller; your provider is the processor. Consult a legal specialist for your situation; our technical team can confirm the location and identity of the hosting infrastructure for your ServOrbit services, for inclusion in your declaration, by writing to [email protected].

Prices on ServOrbit are tax exclusive (VAT excluded); Moroccan VAT at a rate of 20% applies to every order, whatever the country of your company, and is itemised on your invoice. Being established outside Morocco does not entitle you to VAT-free invoicing: only an exemption that is substantiated and approved by our team can apply. Check with your accountant whether you can recover this VAT. For any billing question, please contact our team from your client area.

Yes. Law 09-08 on personal data protection applies as soon as the data controller is established in Morocco, regardless of where the servers are hosted. You must file a declaration (or request an authorization depending on data sensitivity) with the CNDP before going live. Hosting outside Morocco also requires you to mention the cross-border data transfer in your declaration.

Yes, Moroccan law 09-08 on personal data protection applies whenever you process data of individuals residing in Morocco, regardless of where your hosting provider is located. If your hosting provider is established outside Morocco, you are considered to be performing a cross-border transfer of personal data, which requires a prior declaration or authorisation from the CNDP. It is recommended to formalise a compliant privacy policy, document data flows, and, if your activity is significant, appoint a data protection correspondent.

A relay server (or SMTP relay) is an intermediary that routes your emails to their destination without managing mailboxes or a user interface. A sending platform like Postal or Stalwart is a complete system: it handles queues, bounces, delivery logs, reputation management, and sometimes IMAP mailbox hosting. A relay suits you if you already have a mail server and need a reliable sending channel; a platform like Postal becomes necessary when you need to manage multiple domains or analyse deliverability rates in detail. To find out which solution fits your use case, browse our knowledge base or contact us at [email protected].

Google Analytics sends your visitors' data to Google's servers in the United States, which involves a cross-border transfer outside the EU governed by standard contractual clauses and requires a consent banner. A self-hosted, cookie-free analytics tool (Rybbit, Umami, Plausible…) collects only aggregated data with no persistent identifier or individual profile: there are no personal data in the GDPR sense, so no consent is required and no transfer outside the EU occurs. Your own server handles everything.

List what you run (system, PHP, database, Node.js, applications), then look up each one's end-of-support date on the project's official website or on a reference such as endoflife.date. Put those dates in a calendar with a reminder six months ahead, enough time to test the upgrade on a copy. Review this list every quarter: software without security fixes is an open door.

A few days ahead, make a full backup and make sure you know how to restore it. Enable caching on your store, lighten your images and disable unused extensions, then test the whole purchase path (cart, payment, confirmation email) on a copy rather than on the live site. Finally, look at the real resource usage of your plan during a busy day: if it comes close to its limits, write to us at [email protected] before the event, not during it.
