How To Request Hosting

To obtain web hosting on our infrastructure, you must submit your hosting request to our user support.

Please ensure your initial ticket message includes answers to the following questions:

  • What is the purpose of the website?

  • Who is the director of publication? (full name, capacity, organization, email address)

  • Who is the webmaster? (full name, capacity, organization, email address)

  • Which :ref:`operating mode <webhosting-modes>` is desired?

  • What technologies are required?

  • What resources are required? (CPU, RAM, storage)

  • Is a CC-IN2P3 hosted database required? If yes, which type?

  • What is the forecasted storage space usage evolution in the next 2 years? If a database is requested, please answer this question, distinguishing the database requirements from the web server requirements.

  • What is the expected traffic for this website?

  • What domain name should this website answer to? Non-IN2P3 domain names should be provided separately.

Any additional information that helps us understand the website’s purpose and scope would be greatly appreciated.

Each request is examined and assessed based on the elements provided. Additional information may be requested.

The cost of hosting is assessed based on its requirements, complexity, data volumes, access needs and scope of the website. Hosting can be provided free of charge or for a fee. In the latter case, a hosting contract is set up to establish the hosting conditions and to define the rights and obligations of both parties.
