I too have been playing around with the different virtualization possiblities, and I believe it all comes down to one choice. OpenVZ is easier to get going but doesn't guarantee that the hoster is not overselling. Xen is harder to get going (in my experience, due to pae quirks and other stumbling blocks) but once you get it going it's just as easy to use and gives the customer the added satisfaction that he'll be using dedicated hardware resources that the host machine actually has, rather than overlapping limits like you can with OpenVZ.
I will be launching a vps hosting service in the next month or so but I have a lot more testing to do before I'm satisfied with my final choice. The hosting service will be aimed at rails development, not production. More details to be announced very soon. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Deploying Rails" group.
