Do you mind me asking what you are running DSpace for? Your requirements will obviously differ if you are just looking for a standard hosting account in order for you run a small personal installation or if you are working for a large organisation that needs a well-tuned and well-run DSpace service. Because DSpace is not just a standard small application and you need a good level of control over the server, my preference is for a virtual host. This way you get full control over your server. I personally have an account with SliceHost (http://www.slicehost.com/) for this sort of thing. Again, depending upon your requirements, you might find you can run a small DSpace instance on a server with 256MB of RAM (512 will definitely be OK - this is what one of our old test servers has) but if you want a fully loaded production service the you'll want more RAM. If it suits what you want, there are also hosted options for DSpace from companies such as BioMed Central: http://www.openrepository.com/ Thanks, Stuart _________________________________________________________________ Gwasanaethau Gwybodaeth Information Services Prifysgol Aberystwyth Aberystwyth University E-bost / E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ffon / Tel: (01970) 622860 _________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ DSpace-tech mailing list DSpace-tech@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dspace-tech
