Make the hosting choice clearer

Understand the managed cloud scope

Managed cloud is a hosted platform for supported website workloads. Confirm the selected provider, region, resources, optimisation profile, backup service and management inclusions before ordering.

Your website owner or developer still manages application code, themes, plugins, compatibility testing and business processes unless a separate service is agreed. A managed platform does not make every third-party application automatically maintained.
