We use Solaris virtualisation and it works great. The zones (VMs
per se) are lightweight, easy to administer and rock solid. <br>
<br>
btw, common misconceptions are that you need sun (oracle) hardware
and that the os is not free. These are both false. <br>

<br>
so you use opensolaris, I guess, and then it can be any intel/amd
arch server (e.g., dell, hp)?<br>

Hi Daniel,<br>
<br>
here's from my personal experience:<br>
Our setup at ng-voice is a little weird sometimes: We've
rented some<br>
virtual servers at a german provider (who uses Xen). On these
virtual<br>
servers we've installed OpenVz, which for us is absolutely
great, if<br>
you are just working with Linux-Servers. While Xen is a rather<br>
complete virtualization, OpenVz is lightweight and comes in
handy, if<br>
you just want to logically separate servers. We've got each
IMS<br>
component (P-/I-/S-CSCF, HSS, Application-Servers, Databases)
running<br>
on a dedicated OpenVz Container, which is really great. We've
even got<br>
a CentOs-Container running on a Debian OpenVz, which is
started<br>
"on-demand" in order to build RPM-Packages. With OpenVz you
can even<br>
move Containers from one host to another, theoretically with
zero<br>
downtime (doesn't work with SEMS, don't know about other
software).<br>
For our IMS-setup, we work with RTP-Relaying, which works
great within<br>
virtualization, i cannot complain.<br>
<br>
At another customer (a fibre provider in Germany), we're
running all<br>
the infrastructure on Xen-only. An infrastructure provider
takes care<br>
of the administration, but those servers run poorly
(RTP-Relaying is<br>
okay but everything else is really slow).<br>
<br>
Conclusion for me: VoIP on virtual servers can work great, but
the<br>
virtualization infrastructure needs to be administered
properly which<br>
may not be an easy task, if you are new in this subject.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Carsten<br>
