Rapyd Cloud

Hey Product Hunt! 👋 Tom here, co-founder & CEO of Rapyd Cloud. And I’m super excited to share with you an exciting WordPress Hosting product we built for you. 🤔 The idea started years ago, when I, along with Michael Eissenwasser, founded BuddyBoss for online learning and communities. We soon noticed our customers were having problems with slow and costly hosting that just wasn’t enough for the dynamic nature of their websites. So, we set out to create a better solution for our clients. And that eventually turned out to be the perfect recipe for all kinds of dynamic websites. Including eCommerce, LMS, membership, community, and more! We tested Rapyd Cloud against industry favorites, and it consistently scored better on benchmarks, while we were much cheaper. So what do we promise? 🚀 Super-fast performance for dynamic WordPress sites. 📈 Dynamic auto-scaling to handle heavy peak traffic. 🔐 Advanced security powered by Monarx & PatchStack. 🤖 Top-class caching with Relay and Object Cache Pro for free. 🛠️ Dedicated 24/7 support team, all human, no bots. Want to check us out? We are offering a flat 50% offer just for our Product Hunt visitors with the promo code PHRAPYD We're thrilled to share Rapyd Cloud with the Product Hunt community. Take it for a spin to give your website hyperspeed, and let us know how big of a difference it made compared to your current WordPress hosting. Your feedback will be invaluable in making Rapyd Cloud even better! Feel free to contact our team or me personally!

Hey everyone! 👋 I’m Michael, co-founder & CPO of Rapyd Cloud. And I want to add a few things on top of what Tom already shared. We thought of launching a hosting service for our customers because they were struggling. But back then, we were no experts in web hosting either. 😅 Then we met Wes Tatters, who is a hosting industry veteran and was already helping some of our customers tweak their hosting for better performance. Together with Wes, we planned for days and nights to build the hosting solution that we are presenting to you today. While having all the features that Tom shared, I can assure you that it is one of the easiest hosting solutions to use powered by the super-convenient dashboard. We sincerely hope and believe you will love it. ❤️ Just sharing again, we do have a flat 50% offer just for our Product Hunt visitors with the promo code PHRAPYD. So we would love for you to go and try it out!

Congrats on the launch, I'm curious, what makes your dynamic auto-scaling system stand out from others in terms of handling traffic surges, and how does it integrate with eCommerce or membership sites?

Hello Product Hunt, Over the past two and a half years, we have dedicated ourselves to creating the ideal hosting solution for dynamic WordPress sites, and we are thrilled to finally share it with the Product Hunt community. I’m Wes Tatters, the Managing Director and Infrastructure Architect at Rapyd Cloud. I’d like to provide some insights into the challenges we faced while developing our unique platform. Unlike traditional WordPress sites, which typically feature relatively static pages with blogs and articles that seldom change and are well-suited for page caching technologies, dynamic WordPress sites—such as those hosting social communities, memberships, eLearning, or eCommerce—require personalized content for each visitor on every page request. This makes them unsuitable for standard caching and acceleration techniques. As dynamic WordPress sites gain popularity, they encounter significant challenges. They need increasingly sophisticated infrastructure to manage individual page requests; otherwise, performance can deteriorate during peak usage times. With traditional hosting, this often means opting for the largest plan to accommodate the highest traffic, even if that level of service is only needed for a brief period each day. When even those plans fall short, customers are often pushed toward complex VPS and dedicated server solutions that can be overwhelming. At Rapyd Cloud, we aimed to tackle these three key issues. First, we partnered with AWS to create a hosting stack that meets the daily performance needs of our customers. Second, we implemented a cloud-based orchestration system that enables real-time scaling of site experiences. Finally, we simplified this complex technology by integrating it into the world’s most user-friendly customer dashboard. Interested in experiencing our high-performance hosting? We’re offering a special 50% discount exclusively for our Product Hunt visitors with the promo code PHRAPYD. We invite you to give it a try!
