CloudLinux OS is an operating system created for the needs of companies that offer shared web hosting, developed by CloudLinux Inc. CloudLinux is based on the OpenVZ kernel and is compatible with CentOS/RHEL packages.

The primary purpose of CloudLinux is to improve server stability and security, and to optimize the performance of the “tenants” who have leased space on the server by isolating them, assigning them dedicated resources, optimizing database performance, and more.

CloudLinux OS offers a modified kernel based on the OpenVZ kernel, adding a set of original and fully functional features. The main benefit of using this operating system is Lightweight Virtual Environment (LVE), an isolated environment with its own CPU, memory, IO, number of processes, and other limits.

What is CageFS?

CageFS is a virtualized, isolated file system that separately isolates each user, or “tenant”, on the server and prevents users from seeing each other, accessing sensitive server information, and similar data. CageFS also protects against a large number of hacking attacks, including most privilege escalation attacks involving users, as well as attacks that expose information about other “tenants” on the server.
