Why not go with 1 VM and just use Tomcat's virtual hosting. Using aliases in apache you only need 1 virtual host (because it has to do the same thing for every host anyway, and that is forward to tomcat).

vm's? how many?

vm's have 1 problem that they all need an excact amount of memory that
they will consume. And the server has now 3G but that doesnt mean that
we can run many vm's on it that all are running tomcat.. Because for
that every vm must be configured to have a bit memory, atleast between
512M en 1G.

I would just say if we want multiply instances then every thing that
is pretty static can be in one (teatime/repo/jira/teamcity/doc) and
all the examples could go into another. I dont see more gain in having
it split up even more.

Well, it would make adding VMs set up to run a "site" very easy.  They
would all look the same (tomcat/jetty, JDK, svn, etc.).  So, you'd
know exactly where to go to make changes.  I use Apache virtual hosts
at home, too, but I don't have that many domains set up (I have 2 I
think).  Setting up a new instance of Tomcat/Jetty for each one of
these sites and maintaining the proxy forwards in Apache can be a
PITA.  That's just my $0.02.  The sites shouldn't need that much
memory anyway (JIRA/TeamCity might require more of course).

How about setting them up as VMs?
This might require partitioning the memory statically for
each virtual server. I think that name-based virtual hosts
by Apache on the front would probably be the most cost-
effective solution.
