Virtual Private Server
Cloud services are commonplace for a number of functions like web hosting, ecommerce and storage. All these services typically offer an easy front-end application for their function (like a "web builder").
Building an eMission server will require more customization. These pages will document the steps.
Unlike more common services, we will start with a bare setup and install and configure the components stepwise. This setup has a number of names but Unmanaged VPS (Virtual Private Server) is commonly used.
Besides the advantage of complete control, unmanaged VPS are typically cheaper than managed options.
