- abudhabi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4depends on what company you have.. but in general sense, it drops hosting fees, and gives you higher quality hosting services.
You get the quality of dedicated server at the price of shared hosting.
That's because, you still share the server, but the resources are so well separated by the virtualization software that it's like your services live in a separate server.
So, forexample, you can have root access to your virtually dedicated server.
Sorry if it was confusing, I'm not a native speaka - Xiol, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4What is a Virtual Private Server and how can I use one to benefit my company?
There, there's a decent question/comment. :p
But seriously... ??? - Xiol, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The UML site hasn't been updated since 2002.
That doesn't instill confidence. - qahba, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2coool , I hope this drop the price of VPSes.
a question , if a program on one of the VPSes cause CPU hang, will all the CPU hang ? or just its its own share of CPU would be hanged? - traherom, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Abudhabi (further down) has it right... it basically allows a web hosting company to give each user root access to their "own" server and hides the fact that there could be dozens of others on the same machine.
- tadorna, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You can set a CPU limit in OpenVZ for each VPS, so if a program hangs in one VPS, this wont affect the other VPS systems.
- funkytaco, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It probably won't drop the price of a VPS since OpenVZ is free. ;) The hardware for a VPS server is expensive, and requires alot of memory.
- marillion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1UML hasn't been a seperate project ever since User Mode Linux was merged into the kernel source around 2002.
What's sad is that the technology is solid; but, the documentation has lagged significantly and lots of what you find is both obsolete and wrong. - ubercoder, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is done better/easier with:
UMLs: http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/
VMWare: http://www.vmware.com/
Xen: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/Research/SRG/netos/xen/ - ikor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What do you mean better?
All apps that you have described, are DIFFERENT from OpenVZ. They all use different approach to virtualization than OpenVZ, so it should be difficult to compare them on one line. - endy64, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0If this is anything like XEN then I believe you are allotted a maximum (an minimum) amount of processor e.g. 20% per user, if you start using 100% of your allocated CPU (only 20% of the overall server's CPU) then the server still has the rest free. I would imagine the admins would then step in if you don't sort it.
- GimmeYoShoes, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1No Ubuntu comments yet?
- purp, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0no comments needed :p
- NavinRJohnson, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1comment, comment, comment.
Three little comments sit-n in a tree. K.I.S.S.I.N.G.
there, now you have three.:)
