*📜 Plan description
The Plus Autonomous plan is framed as the best option for learning management systems and large WooCommerce stores that need even more resilient capacity for simultaneous users and checkouts. It carries a monthly price of 400 USD and includes one production website running on three baseline autoscale servers, 100000 MB of disk space, 1000 GB of bandwidth and 100 PHP workers per server, combining the redundancy of multiple nodes with plenty of disk for course media or rich product imagery. As with other Autonomous plans, visits are unmetered, and usage beyond the baseline in terms of storage, transfer or autoscaling is billed with clearly defined add on rates, including a higher autoscaling per hour rate that reflects the extra compute flexibility available on this tier. This plan is appropriate for subscription driven LMS platforms, membership communities, complex ecommerce catalogs and media rich publishing sites where sustained concurrency and a smooth user experience during big launches are critical and where engineering teams prefer not to manage Kubernetes clusters, CDN configuration and security hardening themselves.
Cloudways Autonomous is the fully managed WordPress hosting option built on a Kubernetes based architecture with integrated load balancing and high availability so that sites can automatically scale for traffic spikes without manual intervention. Each Autonomous plan combines true autoscaling of backend resources with Cloudflare Enterprise CDN, edge page caching, a web application firewall and unmetered DDoS protection to keep dynamic stores, learning platforms and content sites responsive and secure at global scale. The platform includes Redis caching, Object Cache Pro and optimized PHP workers per server, giving fast page loads for shoppers and students while maintaining a snappy WordPress admin experience even with heavy concurrent usage. Bandwidth, disk space and autoscaling capacity can be extended beyond a baseline allocation on a pay as you go basis, with clear per gigabyte and per hour pricing for additional consumption so monthly costs stay transparent. Autonomous environments also benefit from automated and on demand backups, staging and cloning tools, multiple PHP versions and observability features that simplify troubleshooting, while Cloudways provides 24x7 chat and ticketing support, AI assisted diagnostics through Cloudways AI Copilot, migration help and a focus on keeping online stores, event portals and media sites stable during campaigns, launches and seasonal peaks.

📄 Editorial Review
Cloudways operates as a managed cloud hosting platform rather than a traditional shared hosting provider. Instead of renting space on their own servers, they sit on top of major cloud infrastructures – DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode / Akamai.com, AWS and Google Cloud – and provide a simplified control panel, performance stack and managed services around them. This makes Cloudways an option for agencies, ecommerce businesses, developers and serious bloggers who want the power of cloud servers without running Linux boxes themselves.The company started in 2012, co-founded by Aaqib Gadit and Pere Hospital, and later became part of DigitalOcean in 2022. It originally grew out of Malta and now runs under its US-based parent with a distributed team across more than twenty countries. The platform today powers a large number of websites and sits firmly in the managed cloud and premium WordPress hosting segment rather than the low-cost shared-hosting market.
Product portfolio and positioning
Cloudways groups its hosting into two main product lines:
- Cloudways Flexible – customizable managed hosting for WordPress, WooCommerce, Magento, Laravel, custom PHP apps and multi-site setups. Customers choose the underlying cloud provider and instance size (RAM, vCPU, SSD, bandwidth etc.), and Cloudways adds its management layer, monitoring, backups, security and performance stack (the newer Lightning Stack, built around NGINX, PHP-FPM, caching and Imunify360 firewall). In practice this behaves much more like managed VPS or managed cloud servers than classic shared hosting.
- Cloudways Autonomous – fully managed, Kubernetes-based, high-availability WordPress hosting built on Google Kubernetes Engine with integrated Cloudflare Enterprise, autoscaling and load balancing. This line is aimed at high-traffic WooCommerce stores, LMS platforms and media or event sites with big, spiky traffic where autoscaling and resilience matter more than manual control over server sizes.
On top of these core hosting lines there are several add-on and companion services:
- Cloudflare Enterprise CDN add-on for global caching, WAF and DDoS mitigation.
- SafeUpdates for automated WordPress core, plugin and theme updates with testing.
- Malware Protection Add-on for proactive scanning and cleanup.
- DNS Made Easy integration to accelerate DNS resolution.
- Client Billing & Reporting for agencies that resell hosting and need automated invoicing and white-label reports.
- Cloudways AI Copilot, an AI-assisted troubleshooting and monitoring layer that helps detect issues in the stack and suggests remediations.
In everyday use, Cloudways functions as a middle ground between doing everything on raw cloud infrastructure and paying for very high-end boutique WordPress hosting. It removes most sysadmin work – OS patching, basic security hardening, performance stack configuration, server monitoring, backups – while still letting users decide how much RAM/CPU/storage they need and which cloud region to use.
Typical use cases include:
- Agencies who manage dozens of client sites and want centralized management, staging and client billing.
- Online stores (especially WooCommerce) that need strong caching, integrated CDN, autoscaling options and good support.
- Developers who want an opinionated stack (SSH, Git, staging, multiple PHP versions) without building it from scratch.
- Growing SMB sites that have outgrown cheap shared hosting but do not want an in-house DevOps team.
It is less suitable for users who simply want a very cheap shared plan with bundled domain, email and cPanel, or for workloads that fall outside the PHP/WordPress/Laravel/Magento ecosystem.
