Best Practices for Hosting Sitefinity

Consider the following before making use of hosting services:

• Generally, hosting firms offer shared server utilisation, so you need not worry about the server machine.
• Typically, hosting companies enable you to use a certain number of resources, such as 500 MB of storage space and 2 GB of database space. On a shared server, you have a limited on the CPU resources, thus you should examine how much of the physical CPU resources you can truly utilise. For instance, you may have a CPU utilisation limit of 5 percent, and when this limit is exceeded, your application pool is recycled.
• For dedicated servers, such as those provided by Azure, Amazon, Rackspace, and others, you might consider demanding the availability of the complete hardware.
• Additionally, there are differences in service and cost when hosting two or more websites on the same server. One of the websites could be an internal application or gateway that requires less resources.

General suggestions:

• Enable IIS modules for both static and dynamic compression.
• Always execute the application pool with Domain Account in a domain environment.
• Set the application pool’s idle time-out to 0.
• Set Pool’s regular recycling interval (in minutes) to 0. The default time interval is 1740 seconds.
• Set the setting Enable 32-bit programmes to false.
• Always remove Users and Creator Owner from the ACL of website folders for security reasons.
• Authenticate the application pool identity user Read authorizations Set the permissions for the AppData folder to Modify.
• HDD sizes in the recommendations are minimum requirements. In addition, it is assumed that no other services are installed and that IIS logging is either disabled or that there is a cleanup or archive script for old logs. Using logging necessitates additional storage space.
