Hello Folks, I'm interested in finding a company that will do monthly managed zope hosting. We're looking for a dedicated machine. I know that Zope Corp does this and it is quite expensive. I wonder if anyone has had any experiences with such a service. Any advice is highly appreciated, and I apologize if this list is an inappropriate venue to pose such a question. Thanks! Dan
If you want your own 'dedicated' server it would probably be cheaper to get your own machine, load & configure zope to your specifications and then use a standard co-location ISP. This will be easier/cheaper to set-up/operate than trying to find a zope ISP who will rent you a dedicated box.

There are a number of these companies around. iMeme and Zettai come to mind. I'm sure there are more nowadays. --jcc -- Building Websites with Plone http://plonebook.packtpub.com/

Dan, I use Zettai. Can't complain at all. Even though I use virtual host plan (I share a server with about 8(?) others) the performance is better than I feared might be the case. The best of all worlds is to at least co-host your server. But thats more over-head for the developer. Zettai support is excellent. (although they do get cranky if you lean too much on them). I just checked out the iMeme site - and they may be pretty good ( jcc wouldn't recommend them otherwise) but their presentation is gawd-awful and not confidence inspiring. David
+1 for Zettai. Have had great success with them. If you need a place to stick a server then I highly recommend bayMountain. Amazing service and support. A great team of open source and Zope experts there. Allen David wrote:

Servelocity at http://www.servelocity.net/ are also very good. You can rent your own dedicated server and install what you want on it. Excellent support and service. On 3/12/06, Allen Schmidt <aschmidt@fredericksburg.com> wrote:

Thanks to all for the advice. It feels like I'm better off with a dedicated server on which I can install and configure zope myself. I wonder now about what type of machine is ideal. Eventually I hope to be serving many (possibly hundreds) small websites via VHM. I'm sure that I need plenty of memory, but what about CPU? Are there any statistics or recommended configurations out there? How can I know what sort of load a particular server will be able to withstand? Thanks for your help! Dan

are also very good. You can rent your own dedicated server and install what you want on it. Excellent support and service.

Depending on what performance levels you need, I've used these folks in the past and have had excellent service from them: aplus.net (http://servers.aplus.net/valueservers.html) - Their $49.00/mo server was an awesome buy for what I needed - and it's fully dedicated. They have higher end machines as well. You get root, so you can do whatever you wish. Andrew Sawyers On Mon, 2006-03-13 at 22:56 +0000, michael nt milne wrote:
