 ## PHP
 
-PHP is a server-side scripting language designed for web development but also used as a general-purpose programming language. While PHP originally stood for Personal Home Page, it now stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, which is a recursive backronym.

 ## php.ini
 
 The `php.ini` file is the configuration file used for applications that require PHP. It contains variable configurations such as upload size, file timeout, and resource limits. For Scaleway Web Hosting, we provide PHP with the most common values preconfigured. If required, you can [customize the configuration of PHP](/classic-hosting/how-to/configure-php/) to suit your needs.
 
-## Plesk
-
-Plesk serves as a web hosting control panel, similar to cPanel, aiming to simplify the management of websites. Its user-friendly interface facilitates tasks such as domain management, email configuration, and database administration. Plesk can easily be extended with additional features using the [Plesk Extension Catalog](https://www.plesk.com/extensions/).

 ## Protected hosting
 
-Protected hosting is a feature that prevents your Web Hosting plan from being deleted, ensuring your site stays online. While deletion is blocked, you can still manage and configure your hosting settings through the control panel ([cPanel](#cpanel) or [Plesk](#plesk)). This protection keeps your hosting secure without limiting your ability to make necessary adjustments.
