hi,
due to some fairly complex issues (money, or lack thereof), I am
considering turning a mod_perl server from co-location into a 'virtual
server' service, like Verio offers.
Far from asking if it is a good solution (I know it is not) I'd like to
know if its feasible. I have been managing remote co-located servers for
quite a while, so I am already used to the impotence of not being able
to kick the box when it misbehaves. In fact, last time I got really
angry at a box I got a my fist cut, hitting it. So remote boxen might
turn out to be healthier for my temper ;)
Is anyone using a 'virtual server' succesfully? Or have a horror story?
Know of companies other than verio?
Oh! and before anyone points it out, yes, it low -- low -- low traffic.
The current server never gets more than 0.5 load average.
