Understanding Your Hosting Infrastructure

Every account is assigned specific resource "guardrails" to ensure server stability. Follow this manual to audit your connectivity and quotas.

1. Hosting Connectivity (DNS)

To point your domains to BoostonCP, you must use our authoritative nameservers. Copy the NS1 and NS2 addresses from the connectivity card and update them at your domain registrar (e.g., Namecheap, Cloudflare).

2. Auditing Node Resource Quotas

The Resource Quota grid provides an instant snapshot of your technical limits:

  • CPU Quota: The percentage of processing power allocated to your processes.
  • Memory Pool: Total RAM available for your PHP scripts and applications.
  • Disk Pool: Maximum storage space for files, databases, and emails.

3. Monitoring Package Limitations

Check the Package Plan pill. If you find yourself consistently hitting 100% of your CPU or RAM quotas, your website may experience slow response times. In such cases, contact your provider to upgrade your node allocation.

MANUAL TIP: Click the Copy Icon next to the nameservers to ensure there are no typos when updating your DNS records at your registrar.
