Hi all

I am looking for some advice since I wanna get a company that hosts my site. I need Java, Servlets, JSP support and Cocoon will be a great add-on.

I was researching and found that these companies have my requirements.

Creative Web http://www.cwihosting.com
Silicon Valley Web Hosting http://www.svwh.net
KB Mail http://www.ebpcs.net/hosting/java_dev.html
Electronaut http://www.electronaut.com
WebPipe http://hosting.webpipe.net
http://www.servlets.net
AO Industries http://www.aoindustries.net (Cocoon support)
http://www.virtualserver.it (Cocoon support)
http://www.mmaweb.net (Cocoon support)
http://www.echomountain.com (Windows 2000)
http://www.hostpro.com (Windows 2000)
http://www.cguru.com
http://www.infinitesite.com

I am asking for some reviews or comments about these companies and if someone has another recommendation to help my choice that would be great.

Thanx in advance

Can't comment on webpipe.net's web hosting, but I can on their uptime and support, as I use to colo with them. They have excellent response time, smart staff, and helpful staff.

Another recommendation : http://www.webexpose.net

If you really need Cocoon, ask them if they can install it for you and see what they say (they're quite receptive).

Webpipe.net will usually install something if you ask nicely.

JSP hosts were recently discussed, see:
http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?threadid=2173

Ooops it took me almost a week to check all the web hosting services and I have some winners.
Webpipe does support Cocoon but the JVM is shared :(
Didn't get an answer from webexpose, that's weird.
Are Creative Web Ideas and Inihosting related, they offer almost the same package, the JVM is also shared.
Hostpro.com does support Servlets in Win2k but not JSPs.
And these support Cocoon and servlets:
http://www.servlets.net
http://www.mmaweb.net
http://www.aoindustries.com
Does anyone know where I can find reviews from this sites, to see if it worths to have Cocoon support in these providers.

Thanx in advance

I have been doing similar research; here is what I've found:

All of these support JSP1.1/Servlets2.2
aoindustries.com
colossus.net
cwihosting.com
kattare.com
abhost.net
bovia.com
jrc-hosting.com

also, I found:
pwebtech.com - running Zeus3.3 on Solaris, not sure what that supports

I'm leaning towards jrc-hosting.com (can't find a rating under 10 for him on hostsearch.com; not sure how reliable that is, but I have exchanged emails with him and the response time is very fast)

I have been using http://www.netcraft.com/whats to find out what the hosts are running... JServ1.1, JServ1.0b, Tomcat, etc.

hth,
