Opalstack
Developer-owned US host running PHP-FPM, Node, Python and Ruby stacks with full SSH on every plan, plus VPS and bare-metal tiers.
Shared hosting with a shell on every plan.
Opalstack was started in 2019 by a group of software engineers and remains independent and developer-owned.
The product is shared hosting arranged around stacks rather than one fixed environment: PHP-FPM in several versions, Node, Python with Django, Ruby on Rails and plain static deployment are all first-class, and full SSH and SFTP come with every plan including the cheapest. One-click installers cover the usual CMSes alongside self-hosted software such as Mastodon, Nextcloud, Gitea and n8n. Managed MariaDB and PostgreSQL come with automatic backups, and VPS and bare-metal tiers sit above the shared plans for anything that outgrows them.
Worth knowing
Data-centre locations are published nowhere on the site, which matters for latency and for anyone with a residency requirement. The advertised entry price is a first-year rate against a standing price several times higher, so the renewal cost has to be read separately.
