Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : VPS Hosting : Which VPS company?

[RRN]

Hello all

I am looking for a reliable hosting solution that supports:
- apache-tomcat-5.0.x
- apache-ant version 1.5.1 or more
- SSL and of course dedicated one IP
- control panel which will make JSP applications install easier...

Shared hosting is out of the question, or so it seems. So, next best solution is VPS.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.

I'm currently using Burst.net VPS. I'm not at expert at the subject but so far, it seems great. The Tomcat / JSP support costs $65.

I know there has been some discussion of Java on Servint's forum (closed to the public). They will help you with it, and it's really not hard to set up -- Really, it's an auto-install with WHM.

The only thing is that Tomcat etc. eats up memory on the VPS pretty quickly, so you might want to dedicate a VPS just for this purpose, and then only with less-trafficked sites.

Thank you guys.

Tomcat is very resource hungry on a vps so i would go with a minimum 512mb ram on a vps.

Of the 512mb on a VPS, how much allocation to a single plan would be adequate?

For example, if 4 users share the VPS, would 512mb RAM be enough for each of them?

Or would it be one REALLY slow server?

It all depends on what you are running but if you go with lets say servint.com, I know that their 512mb plan has up to 2gig burst ram which will help alot. The 512mb is guaranteed ram.

Actually It is said on the cpanel forums that Tomcat requires 1GB of RAM allocation to not crash your machine on a regular basis.

I would go with a package that will get you up to about 1GB of Ram if you want to run tomcat.
