We are currently providing Asterisk VPSs with no complaints from customers. The underlying technology is Linux-Vserver, ie. OS virtualization. The advantage over Xen and UML is that each guest is a "little closer to the metal", utilizing the host kernel and only suffering a slight hit from the virtualization layer. We also closely monitor usage across the board to ensure there is no CPU or network hogging. Each host is built with the zaptel modules, specifically ztdummy, and we have seen excellent performance with Meetme.

If a customer where to build asterisk from source inside a VPS, they just need to follow the VPA document at telephreaks (previously mentioned) after the host stuff. Though zaptel is not required by any means for a functional Asterisk VPS, copying a couple zaptel headers is necessary for a complete Asterisk build to include Meetme, et. al. This means zaptel is not actually compiled in the VPS.

At the moment we know that systems are running on Gentoo and CentOS distributions, both 32 and 64-bit. Most of them are testbeds with the intention to move on to dedicated hardware after concepts are thoroughly tested.
