Ive run it in this manner before.. astlinux is lightweight.. I found running in 
a VM that using directmedia was a MUST and no transcoding... astlinux / 
asterisk in a hosted environment works well..  I havent tried running astlinux 
specifically using TLS and SRTP but I would if I were hosting it..  on regular 
asterisk it didnt add much overhead to the system load...

on ESXi  I gave it 2 cores and 2 gigs of RAM(main CPU is a core i7-3770k and 16 
gigs system RAM in the bare metal)  and tested up to 10 simultaneous calls into 
voicemail without any audio quality issues... (uncompressed ulaw)..  

I havent tried with this specific setup using compression..  i realize 
bandwidth could be an issue if you are wanting to run lots of traffic through 
it...
in my past tests with G729 it ate up a LOT of CPU in a VM and wrecked the call 
quality..  but that was a few years ago on VMware server and not on a bare 
metal hypervisor.. things are likely very different now...

Sorry this may have already been asked.

I am looking at running a hosted Asterisk solution to provide some centralised 
IP Telephony functionality.
Yes I realise that this is not what Astlinux has been designed for, however is 
there any reason that you would not run it in a VMWare ESXi based hosted 
solution?
It may require media traversal!

All my admin interfaces and applications have been developed around the 
solution and it's extremely resource efficient so I would rather not have 
another build but then it's not imperative.

Michael Knill
