Hello,

we currently use VM Workstation for many of our Virtual Machine clients and we are looking to get into hosting more machines. Our company is still developing but of course we would like to be prepared for when we start expanding.

Do you have any suggestions on what we should use?
we offer Windows 2003 & Windows 2008 Operating systems, and of course linux. Our team is looking for something easy to manage, this would include giving/removing resources towards machines.

Also, we would like to start offering domains. Do you have any recommendations on who we should use with our WHMCS panel? We use Name.com for our main domains but it doesn't appear WHMCS is compatible with them.

Thank You and we appreciate you're feedback.

If you intend to make a virtual machine, this http://www.amazon.com/Scripting-Mastery-Premier-Press-Development/dp/1931841578 classic is a must read. Google App engine is a good solution and Ruby are in the front on cloud hosting. Python + Django should also be offered.

I think this is not on spot, but you met get some ideas. In a sense PHP is a good virtual machine, and since I prefer PostgreSQL to MySQL, you should take a look at http://bitnami.org/ virtual machines .
