<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Chris,<br>
<br>
We have a Catalyst app, several Java based monitoring apps and
some other apps running on Bytemark's Big V basic (£12 a month
inclusive of VAT) VPS offering.<br>
<br>
They seem to work fine. The Catalyst app runs on its own VPS as do
each install of the Java App. which is OpenNMS installs. As long
as your requirements are low (which they seem to be) they work
well enough. Linode's UK offers are also good and are a Perl
company so they understand Perl well - Bytemark seem to be
Ruby/PhP.<br>
<br>
Both Bytemark and Linode seem to have clued-up and helpful devs
and have freenode channels on irc so you can scout them out and
have a chat before visiting web portals and customer mangle-ment.<br>
<br>
Hope this helps.<br>

recommend a host - I've got my site to a point where I need to
think about putting it online somewhere. It's a rewrite of a
current site, which I wrote 10 years ago when I was learning
Perl and that does a maximum of 500MB bandwidth a month, so I
don't think I'd need any more than 1GB to be safe, but I don't
know what sort of server specs I ought to be going for with a
database (MySQL) driven site (my current one uses dbm hashes).</div>

(Google cached, as it seems to be down at the moment) hosting
page on the Catalyst wiki and most of the reviews aren't very
recent, so it would be handy to know if there are any
up-to-date recommendations. I don't necessarily need UK based
hosting, but something that's reasonably responsive for
UK-based visitors. My current site is hosted here: <a

move to VPS to host the Catalyst app means I need to shop
around a bit - their VPS costs don't seem to offer as much as
some of the others.</div>
