+
+An informational website, such as a portfolio, blog, or showcase, offers numerous benefits. It provides a platform to easily share your ideas, work, and expertise with a global audience. The process of deploying such a site is straightforward and cost-effective. With built-in security features, it ensures your content is protected, while reliable performance guarantees a smooth user experience for your visitors.
+
+Your informational website can be based on several different architectures, that all come with benefits and tradeoffs:
+
+| Deployment Method       | Benefits                                      | Tradeoffs                            |
+|-------------------------|-----------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|
+| Based on Object Storage | Cost-effective and highly available, suitable for static content. | Limited to serving static files, no server-side processing. |
+| Based on Web Hosting    | Easy to set up and manage, suitable for small to medium websites. | Less control over the environment, can be limited in terms of customization. |
+| Based on Instances      | Full control over the server environment, suitable for complex applications. | More complex setup and management, potentially higher costs. |
+| Based on Elastic Metal (Aluminium) and Flexible IPs | Dedicated physical resources and high performance, suitable for demanding applications. | Higher costs, requires more technical expertise to manage. |
+
+## Hosting a website using Object Storage
+
+Scaleway Object Storage is an ideal solution for beginners and those seeking a simple, cost-effective method to host a static website. The Bucket Website feature allows you to easily deploy static content, and use your own domain name. In addition, Scaleway Edge services provides a caching service for enhanced performance on your website.
+
+Follow the steps below to quickly deploy an informational website using [Scaleway Object Storage](/object-storage/).
+
+1. (optional) [Add a domain name](/network/domains-and-dns/quickstart/#how-to-register-an-internal-domain/). Scaleway Domains and DNS allows you to manage and register your internal and external domains and configure and manage their DNS zones.
+
+2. [Create an Object Storage bucket](/object-storage/how-to/create-a-bucket/).
+
+3. [Enable the bucket website feature](/docs/storage/object/how-to/use-bucket-website/)
+
+4. (optional) [Configure a custom domain name](/tutorials/s3-customize-url-cname/) to make your website  accessible with a branded URL.
+
+
+5. [Configure an Edge Services pipeline (TLS)](/edge-services/quickstart/) to add a caching service to improve performance.
+
+## Hosting a website using Web Hosting
+
+Scaleway Web Hosting offers a simple, scalable, and secure solution with over 420 click-to-deploy apps, making it easy to host websites with CMS like WordPress or use control panels like Plesk or cPanel without managing servers. It's ideal for users who prefer a complete web hosting control panel and quick setup. Follow the steps below to quickly deploy an informational website using [Scaleway Web Hosting](/web-hosting/).
+
+1. [Search for an available domain name for your website](/network/domains-and-dns/quickstart/#how-to-register-an-internal-domain/). 
+
+2. [Order Web Hosting](/webhosting/how-to/order-webhosting/) to efficiently deploy and serve your website.
+
+3. [Configure your domain name and its DNS records](/domains-and-dns/how-to/configure-dns-zones/).
+
+4. [Configure your DNS for Web Hosting](/webhosting/quickstart/#how-to-configure-dns-for-web-hosting)
+
+5. Choose a CMS, such as WordPress.
+
+## Hosting a website using Instances	
+
+Hosting using Instances is a solution suited for users familiar with Unix operating systems and command line installations of tools like WordPress, Nginx, MySQL, and PHP. It offers full control over the virtual infrastructure and app installations, but requires maintenance by the user.
+
+1. [Register a domain name](/network/domains-and-dns/quickstart/#how-to-register-an-internal-domain/). Scaleway Domains and DNS allows you to manage and register your internal and external domains and configure and manage their DNS zones.
+
+2. Deploy WordPress on your Instance to start building your website quickly and easily. You can:
+
+  - [Create a new Instance and deploy WordPress](/tutorials/wordpress-instantapp/) in one click using InstantApp.
+
+  - [Deploy WordPress on an existing Instance](/tutorials/wordpress-lemp-stack/) with LEMP on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver.
+
+3. [Configure your domain name and its DNS records](/domains-and-dns/how-to/configure-dns-zones/).
+
+4. [Create an image of your Instance](/instances/how-to/create-a-backup/).
+
+5. (Optional) Edit your WordPress settings to add your domain name.
+
+## Hosting a website using Elastic Metal (Aluminium)
+
+Elastic Metal (Aluminium) is an expert-level solution for users who require full control over the infrastructure. It provides optimal performance by leveraging the dedicated hardware resources at a cost lower than equivalent instances. You can install any operating system and applications you need, but you are responsible for maintaining your entire software stack.
+
+1. [Register a domain name](/network/domains-and-dns/quickstart/#how-to-register-an-internal-domain/). Scaleway Domains and DNS allows you to manage and register your internal and external domains and configure and manage their DNS zones.
+
+2. Deploy WordPress.
+
+3. [Configure your domain name and its DNS records](/domains-and-dns/how-to/configure-dns-zones/).

 Providing water consumption metrics is essential in the context of cloud services hosted in data centers because water plays a key role in cooling systems, which ensure the optimal operating temperatures for servers. The amount of water consumed depends on factors such as the temperature, humidity, and the design of the cooling system. For instance, in hot and dry climates, water consumption tends to be higher. At Scaleway, we choose our data centers also taking this criterion into account to reduce water consumption as much as possible.
