Thank you! This should be what we need to get started.

You may be right on this as not sure about patches (I understand there are a lot less updates for PW then WP) and other on going maintenance. Are there any Process Wire "managed hosts" you can recommend? Don't want to violate any spam rules on this, but couldn't find much via Google.

Hi Adrian, Thank you for the warm welcome and valuable info! Always hard being a newb! This thread mentions ServerPilot. Seems like it would make it easier for us to do the install and monitoring. Thoughts? https://processwire.com/talk/topic/10421-hosting-recommendations/#comment-104380 Thanks again!

Greetings! I'm a non-tech trying to get some info for my IT Manager in Hong Kong. We have a developer who created a Process Wire site for us and we want to host it ourselves on a virtual machine using our Azure cloud platform. According to my IT Manager, ProcessWire is developed with PHP5, a common/popular language on the Linux platform. He advised: "although ProcessWire can run on a Windows server, since it's based on PHP it’s best and most efficient to run on the Linux platform." He is asking the preferred Linux distribution for PW. Any advise or link to a installation guide would be appreciated. Many thanks, David
