    Smile Depends what your going for...

    It all depends in what your going for -

    1. Are you looking for a very high Secured Distribution?
    2. Are you looking for a Optimization-Based ?
    3. Are you looking for a Cloud Cluster - Optimization

    So many theories can be taken into place


    If it was me obviously i would go for number 1


    And correct me if im wrong im not going to google it just gonna remember everything i type below


    But cloudlinux came about 2-3 years ago When the IT Security Field was starting to get Big


    What made cloudlinux So awesome compared to all other Linux Distributions is the fact at how it Virtualized its Users

    Example:

    Think of a Virtual Machine Running in its own Background - Then Another Virtual Machine - Then Another - So on and so forth


    Each VM was designed to run separate from the Same Root


    If you dont understand that then try and think like this



    On lets say Centos and your using Cpanel

    When you create a account random stuff gets updated

    DNS zones, FTP,Mysql, /etc/shadow , /etc/passwd , Apache files , blah blah blah

    If you understand how the /etc/passwd / shadow works and understand how everything is defined by groups , etc etc

    Then lets say on this server you create another account

    Both accounts you just made can be seen in the /etc/sha* /pass* file

    Code: 
    cat  /etc/shadow ; cat /etc/passwd
    Now in order to access these directories you could cd ... under root - or any other userid depending on Security set in place


    Now lets say a malicious user uploads a c99 shell to the server

    Network Admin has it php poorly misconfigured - And lets say your main site was running files that connected to a database - the hacker could go in and type

    Code: 
    cat  /etc/passwd
    
    .....
    
    ls -la /home/*username*/public_html/Site_Index/includes/
    
    ....... 
    
    cat /home/*username*/public_html/Site_Index/includes/config.php
    Hacker now has complete control over your site just by uploading a c99 shell or a CGI shell and typed in some simple commands


    Whats the difference in cloudlinux?


    In CloudLinux each usergroup is defined to its own you can call it to make it easier
    Virtual File System

    A = Main Server
    B = Client
    C = Client
    D = Client


    Hacker uploads c99 shell to Same server - Lets give the hacker the benefit of the doubt and say its still mis-configured properly

    Hacker executes commands listed up above

    -------------------------------------------

    Hacker can not pull the data anymore

    Due to the fact each user is running on its own Virtual Filesystem so its like a computer inside of the computer its self but not a Virtual Machine

    i know im going into great detail and a lot of this isnt needed but im trying to get my reputation up on this forum so i will explain stuff in a deep manner


    ---------------------------------------------


    Apache - I dont even know where to begin with that

    From the default installation loading shit loads of unused modules to the Memory optimization failure to adequate to certain PC specs - to the bullshit misconfiguration from NetAdmins


    LightSpeed - A better version of Apache just that it still loads more resources - and it leverages the security from php automatically - ( still shitty )


    Nignx - Can be damm Good - I say that only due to the fact if u take a look at recent and past exploits for Local and Remote root exploitaton Nignx hardly has any + compiling from source makes it even more better


    You have to take into consideration what You think would be the best Web Services to use with your distribution

    all the way from TCP connections to load balancing - to Security all takes a factor in you overall performance of how good your system is

    Sure you can go off and use a Alternative of cloudlinux But the question really is what is the best Overall Distribution to use - due to the fact of all the stuff you have to take into account

    I can go on and on and on and on , on telling you what you need to do - BUT

    Practice makes perfect and if you use various distributions and learn each one you will get an ideal on whats the best one to use
