Title: VPS Configuration Advice for Medium-Traffic OpenCart Store
Post by: Forweb on February 20, 2026, 09:09:05 AM
Good day professionals,
I am planning to migrate my OpenCart store from shared hosting to a VPS environment due to performance limitations. Could anyone suggest an appropriate CPU, RAM, and storage configuration suitable for a medium-traffic online shop? I am considering AMD-based servers for improved performance efficiency and would like advice on the best setup for stability and scalability. Proper database optimization and server-side caching are also important factors for me. Is Hostingsource.com vps hosting good? Any experiences to share here? thanks.

I would greatly value your professional input.

I moved my OpenCart site from shared hosting to hostpro.com VPS because page speed and cart delays were hurting conversions. Once I layered in server-side caching (Redis + OPcache), the database lag disappeared and checkout times improved. Their support team helped me configure the caching stack, which saved hours of trial and error. For a shop that needs to scale gradually, hostpro.com gave me both stability and performance headroom without overspending.
