The online shopping industry is gaining popularity all over the world, so e-commerce sites are extremely demanded nowadays. We can find many options available online to build and host an e-commerce website, but Magento cloud hosting is considered to be one of the most robust, flexible and scalable open source e-commerce platforms on the market. 

Magento includes a wide range of tools to build and manage an online store. It is well known in the developer community for its use of object-oriented programming (OOP) and especially for its use of the Entity–attribute–value (EAV) model. This allows Magento to be enough versatile at storing a large range of data.

Magento can be automatically deployed and hosted in the cloud with the help of Jelastic PaaS. There are two installation packages with different web-servers used in the topology – NGINX or LiteSpeed. It’s pretty easy to get them up and running, just follow a few simple steps below.

1.Enter the Jelastic dashboard, find the **Magento Standalone** package in the [Marketplace](https://docs.jelastic.com/marketplace) and press **Install**.

Alternatively, you can [import](https://docs.jelastic.com/environment-import) the Magento [manifest](https://github.com/jelastic-jps/magento/blob/master/magento/manifest.jps) with the needed topology:

2.In the opened popup dialog, specify the name of **Environment** and choose the preferred **[Region](https://docs.jelastic.com/environment-regions)**. 

If the installation of Magento on [LiteSpeed Web Server](https://docs.jelastic.com/litespeed-web-server) is available on the chosen service provider, there will be the checkbox Install LiteSpeed High-Performance Web Server. And if you prefer [NGINX](https://docs.jelastic.com/nginx-php)-based installation, just untick this option.

Click on the **Install** button.

Everything is set up and ready! Magento is not only user-friendly but also beneficial for merchants as they can manage multiple stores within a single admin panel. It is a perfect shopping cart that meets the requirements of today’s competitive business. Try it out yourself at one of public [Jelastic PaaS service providers](https://jelastic.cloud/?featuresSupport=MG).
