What type of hosting environment is compatible with AzuraCast?

Can I use AzuraCast on a Shared Hosting Environment?

AzuraCast is a self-hosted radio streaming platform that provides station owners with the tools to broadcast their content over the internet. But with many web hosting services now offering ‘shared hosting’ packages, people are often asking the same question: can I use AzuraCast on a shared hosting environment?

The answer to this question is: it depends. Many shared hosting environments are not well-suited for running AzuraCast in its full form. This is because, by their very nature, shared hosting plans offer limited access to system resources – such as CPU and memory – meaning that AzuraCast may struggle to run efficiently in such an environment.

That being said, there are still ways to use AzuraCast in shared hosting environments. For starters, there is a cloud-hosting option available that is designed to operate within the confines of a shared hosting environment. This service, called CloudCast, is offered by AzuraCast and is specifically designed to make running a web radio station from a shared hosting environment easier. Additionally, there are various external plugins and scripts available that can be used to help manage and optimize the usage of resources when running AzuraCast on a shared hosting environment.
