like DTC.

There is only a couple of virtualisation options suitable for server
based stuff, Xen seems to be the cheapest/best option, others include VM
Ware for Servers $$$$ and VZ $$$ and OpenVZ which is free but allows you
to over allocate ram which can cause apps to crash when the underlying
OS takes ram back.

DTC for Xen
