Re^2: web apps on a limited access server (cpanel)

[jimbus]

I'm not deadset on anything and I guess that I have been out of the field for long enough that I'm barking up the wrong tree, which would explain why my google search have been utter fails.

I have a series of WP sites hosted on one of the bigger hosts, so I thought that would be an obvious choice and they manage everything through cPanel. I built my web app and data mining empire at my previous employer on perl, mod_perl/mason, so again, seemed obvious. But I spent most of the whole day researching, with no luck (between keeping 4 kids cleaning, getting lunch and dinner and taking them to practices).

So you think I'd be better served looking at a cloud service with PSGI/Plank and Mojolicious? This first app is something to use in family just to get my feet wet, but I have had my eye on a tracking app for a scouting org I am involved in... it'd be cool if I could make it generally available for little or nothing. Would you have a service you'd recommend for my sort of "grand designs"? Maybe offline?

Thanks!
