If you're working with osCommerce 4, you’ve probably noticed it’s a major step forward from previous versions. The new version brings a modern codebase, an updated admin panel, better modularity—and it deserves hosting that matches that level of upgrade.
At Olvy, we provide managed cloud hosting optimized for osCommerce 4, and in this post, We want to walk through why a specialized setup makes a big difference for both developers and store owners.
Performance that Matches osCommerce’s Architecture
osCommerce 4 is more demanding than its predecessors—but also more capable. Olvy's stack is tuned specifically for PHP-based eCommerce platforms:
- Nginx + Server side Cache for improved dynamic page load times
- NVMe SSDs (not SATA) to deliver lightning-fast database and file access
- Cloudflare CDN integration for asset caching and global delivery
💡 No need to manually tune cache settings or fight with I/O bottlenecks—we’ve already done the work.
Built-In Security You Don't Have to Script
Security is non-negotiable in eCommerce. At Olvy, we’ve bundled critical protections by default:
- Free Let’s Encrypt SSL
- WAF and DDoS protection baked into the edge
- PCI-compliant infrastructure
- Regular security patching and audit-ready logs
If you're responsible for client stores, this also means fewer compliance worries and no last-minute fire drills.
Fully Managed, Developer-Ready
We get that not every store owner wants to SSH into a terminal—and not every developer wants to manage hosting tickets.
That’s why Olvy provides:
- 24/7 managed support for both server and platform-level issues
- Optional SSH and SFTP access
- Support for staging sites, backups, cron jobs, and more
- Zero-downtime migrations (we’ll move your osCommerce 4 site for free)
✅ We’re also comfortable working directly with developers when needed.
Scales With Your Store
Whether your client is just launching or already running a high-traffic store, Olvy scales on demand:
- Start with 2GB RAM, scale to 8+ cores as needed
- Cloud infrastructure that grows without server reboots
- Usage-based pricing for efficient scaling

As someone who manages websites for multiple clients, I need a host that won’t crash under pressure. I recently gave spaceship.com/web-hosting/ a try and was honestly impressed. The load times are fast, even during traffic spikes. Plus, the support team is super responsive. One of my favorite features is the free domain privacy and site builder that come standard.
