Mark,

Try VPSLink.

http://vpslink.com/?ref=7J32ZZ

The cheapest plan is about 6.6$ p/mo and you will get a discount of 10% if
you use the above link (referral program).

I have successfully run scala based servlets + postgresql db on it, with
performance sufficient for my needs.

I haven't tried Lift on it though.

cheers,

Another option is http://prgmr.com/xen/

You can get as much RAM as Slicehost for only $8/mo (but slightly less
storage and data transfer).

The support will be much more barebones, though.

I haven't given it a try yet (although I plan to) and there seems to be more
restrictions on what you can do on it, but as long as it is a low traffic
site Google App Engine should be free. I believe there is an example site or
two floating around using GAE.

2009-06-15 Thread Xavi Ramirez

Another host that's similar to slicehost is http://www.linode.com .
Both cost 20$ a month, but you seem to get more bang per buck with
linode (360mb vs 256mb of ram, 16GB vs 10Gb of storage, etc...).

That said, I haven't personally tried linode, so I'm not sure how good
the service is.

You might want to also look into Mosso's Cloud Servers. They use Slicehosts'
technology (Slicehost was purchased by rackspace, which owns mosso), but
don't package the bandwidth in the price. If you have small bandwidth needs,
it will be a little cheaper.
Another alternative is mor.ph. It is a PaaS that has JavaEE as a choice. You
just upload your WAR and off you go. I haven't tried this with a Lift app

[Lift] Re: Cheap Hosting

2009-06-15 Thread Mark Lynn

Jeremy,

Thanks - I agree that you can do whatever you want on a Slicehost  
slice. I also would not mind supporting them since I've used some of  
their install guides when setting up servers elsewhere (in particular  
their Rails guides were very helpful at a time when Rails was a real  
nuisance to setup on a production box). The question was just cost  
given the nature of the project and the lean to non-existent budget of  
the charitable organization.

It is my understanding (and this could be incorrect, of course) that you can
do whatever you want on a Slicehost Slice.  You can install whatever Java
applications you like.  You have total control.

Lift apps are typically (and by default) deployed as WAR files, so they are
indistinguishable from Java-based web apps to the JVM and the app server.
 See
http://blog.lostlake.org/index.php?/archives/73-For-all-you-know,-its-just-another-Java-library.html

There are shared JVM hosting sites, but I suspect that they'll suffer from
the issues outlined here
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/flozano/archive/2007/07/shared_web_host.html

One site I found, http://www.dailyrazor.com/java/private_tomcat.php does
offer shared hosting, but the price point, $13/mo, doesn't seem like much of
a win vs. $20 for slicehost, but maybe that's 'cause I like being root. :-)

Thanks. That is certainly very reasonable and VPS hosting is  
definitely a possibility. I guess what I am asking is whether there is  
shared hosting in the Java realm where you can also install Scala and  
LIft? I'm assuming the answer is not yet, but I thought I would ask.

Mark,
You should be able to host a moderately trafficked site (400 unique visitors
an hour) with a $20 slicehost.com account.

Thanks,

David
