CakePHP Hosting

CakePHP at CheapTopHost

CakePHP is a mature open-source PHP framework that follows the model-view-controller pattern and the principle of convention over configuration. If you name your tables, classes and files according to its conventions, much of the wiring happens automatically, which lets you build working features with surprisingly little code.

The framework ships with a powerful ORM, form and validation helpers, authentication and authorisation plugins, caching and built-in protection against common attacks such as CSRF and SQL injection. Its command-line tool can generate controllers, models and templates for you, turning a database schema into a functional prototype in minutes.

With CheapTopHost you can create a fresh CakePHP project through our app installer and then continue development the way you prefer. SSH access lets you run the CakePHP console, Git keeps your code versioned, and scheduled tasks run background jobs. Point your domain to the webroot folder with a custom document root and you are ready to go live.
