I believe you can create as many regions as you like in a standalone
but you are the only person that can go there
I have created both and to have other ppl come to visit you need to be
a grid
This is not correct. Standalones can handle users from anywhere in the
world, as long as the routers are configured for that.
Basically, a standalone does not allow others to connect their region
to your simulator, while a grid does. This has nothing to do with
people visiting it.
This is also not correct.
Most grids are operated by one single organization/person and don't
support the attachment of ad-hoc regions operated by others. OSGrid is
an exception in this respect.
The difference between a standalone and a grid is simply the number of
components (usually hardware) involved. A standalone has all services
running in one single process in one single machine; a grid has many
simulator processes, usually on different machines, and it typically
centralizes resource management in yet other machine(s).
So if you just want a small world with a few thousand objects in world
at any given time, stay with a standalone; if you plan to scale up, look
into the grid configuration.
