Well I said feel not actually do haha.
Exactly this is what I am trying to say Thank you.
@Spirit: although I did hear Xen is probably the most stable Virtualization technology so far. Although I personally have not confirmed it.
So to be honest OpenVZ was never really going to happen unless someone could put a good argument forward.
What I am hearing is don't stop Xen PV just yet and KVM would be a good option.
Xen has been completely solid but I think KVM is a natural successor, and from what I hear SolusVM will support KVM templates imminently so ISO's will be optional not standard.
@anthonysmith
doit.
Go for it, sounds like uou made up your mind
@fly
waiting to hear from Snel regarding the SLA's on the new DC, if its good then I will do it fairly soon, if not then I will be putting out any new services from the UK in Wildcard Newcastle UK.
@AnthonySmith You might want to take a look at the Rotterdam Internet Exchange data center (in rotterdam). Most of the hospitals I worked at have racks there (Maasstad, Aafje, ErasmusMC, Haga ziekenhuis, Laurens). Also a friend of mine has a rack there for his hosting... http://www.r-ix.nl/content/
I'd say don't stop with Xen. Inception hosting has been the best Xen hosting I have been with so far.
Ovz vs KVM, I'd say KVM.
Big OVZ discounts are easier to get, everything else seems better for KVM (even some big offers too), I go more with OVZ to be honest and with providers that I trust, but I'd like to do a transform sometime, well maybe ..
As a buyer, I don't care about it. All I care about:
1. Whether my apps will run and how will they run;
2. How error-proof is this technology, i.e. how often and hard I will notice bugs;
3. How the technology is supported by it's authors. Like considering service quality when buying a car.
4. Goodness of overall design, whether it's considered kosher or not.
5. Other features, which can affect me. Like memory overcommitment in OVZ.

My vote goes to (2). Not sure about Xen, but I can't get L2TP/IPsec (VPN for IOS devices) to work on OpenVZ.
I believe its in beta now, but no template syncing is available for it yet so its a PIA.
I'd say get rid of Xen. I've never seen much point in it. If you want cheap and Linux and don't need a custom kernel / modules, you can use OVZ for just about anything. If you need Windows or *BSD, or a custom kernel, then you can pay more and use KVM. A provider offering Xen in addition to OVZ and KVM, especially a small provider, is likely spread too thin and can't be an expert in all of them.
@LV_Matt I never bothered with SolusVM's template sync method in the first place to be honest.
@NickM The point is basically everything you mentioned before KVM was more widely available, I agree with the no point in offering them all apart from the differing price points will suite multiple markets but really its not worth the investment in that many new nodes all at once.
stay away from the openvz clusterfuck, please.
if you do go kvm, will you do upgrades from legacy xen packages -> new kvm package? Same price / a little bit more money is good.
Vote for Xen!
My (free) EC2 also use Xen.
ec2 is teh suck
maybe free KVM or free OpenVZ
Dont be cheap Erawan
this is let....
@fly true that, but cheap != free
There were quite a few free things here. We can make a special section, instead of offers, free stuff that will not sink as long as there is stock

Thats a decent plan @Maounique. I just dont want this to become a begger's place xD
It's free, so it is not suck.
Even better, i never got downtime
Why not try OnApp+KVM?
Even better, i never got downtime
Even when aws-east got pwnt by a wimp storm?
Mine is in singapore.
I'm not a begger
That was joke
@AnthonySmith
What is your decission?
Do you want to keep your Xen product?
As i have interest on your US Xen.
