Open edX® Managed Hosting Book a call
Open edX deployment involves multiple services, Tutor, Docker, configuration choices, updates, monitoring, and security work. Raccoon Gang handles Open edX managed hosting with production-ready setup, 24/7 monitoring, backups, upgrades, and SLA-backed platform support. 
Why Managed Hosting? Open edX is not a simple server setup.
A real Open edX deployment depends on multiple connected services, including LMS, Studio, databases, cache, search, background workers, email, storage, and monitoring. Each layer needs configuration, updates, backups, and security care.
Why Raccoon Gang? We manage the platform layer for you.
Our Open edX hosting team handles Open edX server setup, Tutor/Docker configuration, monitoring, backups, upgrades, and performance tuning. Self-hosting can quickly turn into a DevOps burden.

Managed LMS Hosting for Open edX: What’s Included
Open edX hosting works best when infrastructure, updates, monitoring, scaling, and security stay under one managed process. Raccoon Gang handles the technical layer, so your team can focus on courses, learners, and platform growth.
Account Setup
We create and configure your cloud service provider account. Your team avoids the setup work, access configuration, billing details, and infrastructure preparation steps.
Cloud Infrastructure Configuration
We prepare the cloud environment for the Open edX platform deployment. This includes server configuration, network setup, access rules, storage, security basics, and the infrastructure needed for stable platform operation.
Platform Monitoring and SLA-Based Support
We monitor the hosting environment, resource usage, platform health, and infrastructure performance. When issues appear, we help detect and address them before they affect learners or administrators.
Monthly Hosting Payment
We streamline the management of monthly hosting payments, centralizing the process to free you from the administrative burden of maintaining funding sources and managing accounts.
Server Scaling
Your platform load can change during launches, campaigns, exams, or new course releases. We support server upscaling and downscaling so your infrastructure matches real usage without overpaying for unused capacity.
Upgrade Management
Open edX upgrades require planning, testing, dependency checks, and controlled deployment. We help manage version updates, reduce upgrade risks, and keep your platform aligned with supported Open edX releases.
Security Patching
We handle operating system security patching and infrastructure-level updates. This helps reduce exposure to known vulnerabilities and keeps your hosting environment more reliable.
Backups and Disaster Recovery
We configure backups and recovery procedures to protect platform data and reduce downtime risk. If something goes wrong, your team has a recovery path instead of starting from scratch.
Cloud Usage and Payment Control
We monitor cloud resource usage and help control monthly hosting costs. You get better visibility into infrastructure spending without managing cloud billing alone.
Migration Support
If you need to move an existing Open edX instance, we can support platform migration, data transfer, configuration review, and infrastructure preparation in the new environment.
Hosting Closure and Account Transfer
When the hosting service ends, we help close the hosting setup and transfer the account, data, and configurations back to your team. The goal is a clean transition with minimal disruption.

The RaccoonGang has been nothing but exception with regards to the planning of, developing and after-service when it came to our edX roll-out. More so, the learning curve on this has been huge for us and RG has simply made it possible with the sharing of knowledge and answering of questions. We would not be in the position we are now where we have a competitive solution in market had it not been for the RG and their teams of supportive staff. I would highly recommend RG to any company.
