Looking for shared host with Python 3.11 and long-running processes

Hi all — Jane here from Contabo. I'm asking this personally, not officially, since I'm stuck on my Django side project.

My current plan runs PHP fine, but I need:

  • Python 3.11+ (3.12 preferred)
  • ASGI or WSGI application server support
  • Long-running processes (celery beat, maybe a small redis)
  • Ideally under $15/month

I know shared hosting is usually LAMP stack territory. Has anyone found a provider that handles Python app servers without jumping to VPS? I'd rather not manage the OS if I can avoid it.

Thanks for any pointers — happy to check specifics via DM if that's easier.

Bon, so, the shared hosting it is not made for this, how to say... the process manager? The supervisor? You need the daemon that stays alive, and on shared the server it is broken when you try this. The PHP it dies after the request, but Python it wants to live!

Maybe OVHcloud or GreenCloudVPS they have the "application" tier, but honestly it is VPS with training wheels, non?

it's not lag, it's dramatic tension

Shared hosting architectures do not permit persistent processes. Period.

Your requirements:

  • Python interpreter version control
  • Daemonized workers
  • In-memory data store

These are operating system level concerns. A virtual private server is the minimum viable platform. Managed vps offerings exist. KnownHost and RackNerd provide these. Expect $12-20 monthly.

Shared hosts kill your process, it's by design
